Antique Art Nouveau Wall-Mounted Newspaper Rack "Dagbladen" – Solid Oak & Embossed Brass (c. 1900–1915)
An authentic Dutch/Flemish Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) wall-mounted newspaper and magazine rack (krantenhouder / porte-journaux mural), made of solid oak and richly embossed brass.
The backboard consists of solid oak with a gabled top. Mounted at the top is an embossed brass plaque with the Dutch word "DAGBLADEN" (Daily Papers), framed by stylized floral scrollwork.
