Pierre Sala - Coat rack - Wood

Coat rack “Giant Pencil” – attributed to Pierre Sala, French design of the 1980s

A singular wooden painted coat rack, attributed to the French designer Pierre Sala and datable to the 1980s. The piece, with ironic and postmodern taste, reproduces a giant pencil with a yellow hexagonal shaft, pink eraser, and upper metallic details, completed by multicolored turned knobs and a cross-shaped base formed by four pencil tips. A vintage design specimen, playful and functional, representative of the creative and experimental aesthetics of French design of the period.
