AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

It has a minimalist and geometric design that recalls the Scandinavian style reinterpreted in an Italian way: a tall, narrow column made up of four vertical slats joined in a cross, resting on a slightly raised square base with rounded edges.
At the top, on two opposite sides, four very simple turned knobs protrude, two on each side, placed at different heights: they were used for coats, hats, scarves, or bags. No frills, no umbrella stands or mirrors: it is the quintessence of the functional minimalism of the times when the old baroque entrance furniture was starting to be discarded to make space for something clean, practical, and 'design,' yet still warm thanks to the wood.
