Stunning decorative magazine rack in brass and copper, with a classic and refined style, featuring exquisite ornamental details.
This elegant piece stands out with its rectangular structure and geometric lines, its beautiful golden and cuivre tones, and its particularly decorative finishes.

It rests on four lion-paw sculpted feet, adorned with floral motifs, which give it a majestic look.

Its metal panels display lovely golden and copper reflections, outlined by a contrasting horizontal band.
