Description from the seller

Rare and characterful antique object: a fully wooden hat block or wig stand, with a beautifully turned foot and a nicely rounded crown. This type was used by milliners and wigmakers to shape and present head coverings. Today it is a particularly decorative collectible with a strong historical appeal.

The warm patina and visible signs of wear tell the story of years of handcrafted use. The wood has developed a deep, rich color and shows beautiful turning marks and natural wear, which only enhances its authenticity. The proportions are elegant and balanced, making this piece equally at home as an interior object in a classic, industrial, or eclectic interior.

A decorative and historic object that fits perfectly in a collection of handcrafted tools, curios, or antique home accessories.

Dimensions
Width 13.5 cm
Height 29 cm
Depth 17 cm
Cross-section of foot: 18.5 cm
