Description from the seller

Elegant Brass-Forged Umbrella/Baton Stand - Intertwined Serpents Motif and Vines - Art Nouveau Style - Early 20th Century
Description
Splendid and unusual umbrella stand (or baton holder), made of high-quality cast brass, dating from the late 19th or early 20th century. The object stands out for its eclectic and striking design, typical of the Art Nouveau / Belle Époque period.
Design Superior: The upper crown is formed by an elaborate interweaving of snakes, with finely chased scales, whose heads meet to form the rings to hold the sticks or umbrellas.
Shaft and Handle: The central shaft is decorated with organic motifs recalling the natural world, culminating in a top handle in the shape of a stylized heart with relief decorations.
Base (Drip Tray): The tray-base features a refined cantilevered decoration with grape clusters and vine leaves, classical symbolism that adds elegance and stability to the structure.
The piece shows a splendid golden luster and is in excellent conservation condition. Perfect as a furnishing piece for entry halls of aristocratic homes or for collectors of fine metal objects.
Dimensions:
Height: 65 cm
Width: 37 cm
Depth: 27 cm
Weight: 4.3 kg
Condition: Very good, with slight signs of age that attest to its authenticity.
