The piece features a perfectly cylindrical form entirely clad in fine pencil reed rattan. The surfaces utilize contrasting application techniques—tight vertical reeds dominate the body, interrupted by a graceful diagonal arch of curved reeds, creating a dynamic, visual sweep. The light, sun-bleached tone of the rattan gives this piece a sophisticated Coastal and Resort aesthetic, reminiscent of high-end 1970s and 80s tropical furniture.

Standing 29 inches tall with a 16-inch round diameter, this pedestal is ideally sized as an accent side table, a sophisticated plant stand, or a display column for sculptural objects and art. Its refined texture adds warmth and interest without visual bulk. It is presented in excellent vintage condition; the reed work is tightly bound and shows a lovely, pale natural patina consistent with age. This piece offers a unique blend of craftsmanship and iconic 20th-century design. See less
