Know before you buy
This is an authentic vintage piece dating back to the 1950s, sourced from France. It features original materials that have developed a natural patina over time.
The rope remains durable and structurally sound, designed to hold standard magazines and newspapers. While it shows signs of its age, it is fully functional for everyday use.
The rack measures 16.5 inches in height, 19.5 inches in width, and 12 inches in depth. It is a compact size that fits easily beside a sofa or armchair.
The iron frame has an aged finish that contributes to its vintage character. We recommend simply dusting it with a soft, dry cloth to preserve its authentic patina.
The base is constructed from an iron frame, so we recommend placing it on a rug or using small felt pads if you are concerned about potential scuffing on delicate hardwood floors.
