Description from the seller
Important floor-standing coat rack in wood and bronze – Napoleon III / eclectic – late 19th century
Elegant and scenographic floor-standing coat rack, made of solid wood with rich metal decoration (bronze or brass), characterized by a turned central column and an upper structure composed of numerous finely worked curved hooks.
The model stands out for its high decorative quality: the upper part features sinuous metal elements and volutes with detailed workmanship, typical of the Napoleonic III taste and French eclecticism of the second half of the 19th century.
Era:
Late 19th century (approximately 1870–1900)
Style:
Napoleon III / eclectic with neobaroque influences
Materials:
• Solid wood
• Bronze / gilded brass
Features:
• Turned baluster central column
• Numerous upper and intermediate hooks
• Sturdy and stable structure
Condition:
Overall good condition for its age.
Shows signs of time and use, including:
• wear on the wooden base
• small scratches and surface marks
• natural patina on wood and metal
Authentic condition that enhances its period charm and appeal.
Mode of use:
Originally used as an entryway or wardrobe coat rack, intended to support hats, coats, and accessories.
Today also ideal as:
• scenographic furnishing element for the entrance
• accessory for classic or antique interiors
• decorative piece for boutiques, studios, or showrooms
