AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The entrance is the business card of every home, and this spectacular vintage wrought-iron umbrella stand "Coralo" was designed for those who want to greet guests with character, color, and refinement. Made in Italy in the 1970s, this accessory combines everyday practicality with the sculptural beauty of artisanal metalwork.
Characterized by a slender, square footprint, the object stands out for its rich pattern of scrolls, curls, and pierced motifs in hand-forged metal. The finish in a fascinating patinated deep red / Bordeaux hue adds a bold and sophisticated touch, perfect for breaking the monotony of corridors and entrances, whether modern or classic. At the base lies a convenient integrated tray to collect water drips and protect the floor.
This is not a mass-produced industrial item, but the craftsmanship of historic Italian wrought-iron workshops of the post-war era, a sector celebrated abroad for transforming crude metal into decorative lacework.
Most wrought-iron umbrella stands of the era were finished in black; this red coloring makes it a true collectible and decorative piece.
Compact and space-saving, it fits perfectly even in tight corners without weighing down the space.
This umbrella stand naturally fits vintage, eclectic, rustic contexts or creates a contrasting element in contemporary spaces.
An unmissable opportunity to own a piece of Made in Italy home-decor history.
The two umbrellas shown in the staged photos are purely illustrative and are not included in the lot.
Dimensions of the umbrella stand: 56x20x20 cm
Used, it shows normal signs of use and wear, clearly visible in the gallery photos.
Seller's Story
Welcome to our Catawiki store. Our journey in online sales began back in 2004, driven by a clear vision: creating online auctions dedicated to high-value objects.
Today, more than twenty years later, we carry forward that exact same vision. We are proud to have remained a small, family-run business, yet operating with the solidity and scale of major industry professionals: each year, we welcome more than 100 new clients, purchase over 150 lots, and select between 3,000 and 5,000 unique items to offer you.
Our commitment is reflected in everything we do, from the initial find to the final delivery to your doorstep:
• A Purchase with Social Value: Buying from us means securing a great deal while actively supporting the future of young Italian students. We collaborate closely with 3 graphic design and advertising schools in Milan, Bergamo, and Lecco.
We invest our time and expertise to teach these students the secrets of online sales, professional photography, and marketing. By choosing us, you are tangibly contributing to their education and career paths.
• Field Research and Discovery: For years, we have been personally scouting the most remote locations across Lombardy to find unique pieces, rarities, oddities, and mid-century modern design.
• We Invest Our Own Capital: We do not sell on consignment. We invest our own capital upfront to purchase and restore every single item, taking on all the risks ourselves.
• Direct Dealings with No Intermediaries: We manage every single price personally.
This allows us to eliminate third-party costs and ensure you get the best possible profit margin as a buyer or collector.
• Meticulous Restoration and Quality Control: We get our hands dirty. Every item is carefully restored and verified with an obsessive eye for detail before going up for auction.
• Secure and Eco-Friendly Shipping: To prevent inflated shipping costs and ensure indestructible packaging, my wife and I head out almost every evening, often at unusual hours, to collect heavy-duty industrial cardboard from businesses in our neighborhood.
We hand-select only pre-evaluated, ultra-resistant materials to offer you maximum protection at the lowest possible cost.
Choosing our lots means relying on the historic expertise of a family that has lived this passion since 2004, while investing in the next generation. Our schools and students thank you deeply for your trust.
Happy bidding!
