Early 20th Century Austrian Bentwood Newspaper Holder No. 33 Attributed to Thonet A classic example of Thonet's innovative bentwood craftsmanship, this Newspaper Holder Model No. 33 (Zeitungsständer Nr. 33) is attributed to the renowned Gebrüder Thonet and dates to the early 20th century. First documented in Thonet catalogs as early as 1904, the design exemplifies the elegant curves and functional simplicity that defined Viennese Art Nouveau and Secession-era furniture. Crafted from steamed and bent beechwood, the stand features graceful looped handles, divided compartments for organizing newspapers, magazines, or sheet music, and a compact freestanding form ideal for any interior. Presented in original vintage condition with a beautiful natural patina that reflects gentle age and use—no restoration has been undertaken, preserving its authentic character. This piece bears no maker's mark or label. It is attributed based on its characteristic form and construction, which is well-documented in Thonet's historical catalogs and design references. There is no official certificate of authenticity; however, the model is firmly established in design literature. The seller takes full responsibility for the attribution. Dimensions: 46 cm width × 30 cm depth × 53 cm height (approximately 18.1 in × 11.8 in × 20.9 in). A timeless and practical addition to any collection of bentwood or early modernist furnishings.
