Floor coat rack in bronze/gilded brass and natural onyx, of Luigi XV Rococo style, dating to 1960–1970 in Europe, with a height of 168 cm and 39 cm depth and width, in good condition with minor signs of age and oxidation on the legs.
Description from the seller
Magnificent floor-standing coat rack with a strong decorative impact, made of gilded bronze/brass and natural onyx, inspired by the elegance of French Louis XV taste.
The piece stands out for its rich ornamental workmanship characterized by sinuous rocaille volutes, vegetal motifs, and refined chased details. The long stem is enriched with elements in light onyx with delicate natural veining that create a pleasant contrast with the gold-toned metal parts.
The tripod base, particularly scenographic, is decorated with stylized female figures that extend along the four moving and slender legs, giving the whole an elegant and refined appearance. The upper part features numerous hooks and supports for hats, coats, scarves and accessories, while the central section includes additional hooks for objects.
Thanks to its substantial dimensions and aesthetic quality, this coat rack represents a refined furnishing accessory for entrances, living rooms, boutiques, professional offices, or settings decorated in classical, neoclassical, glamorous, or Hollywood Regency style.
