Fabulous looking and structurally sound, this purposeful decorative four-shelf tortoiseshell rattan storage shelf / plant stand will stylishly keep linens and toiletries tidy in guest bathroom. Use it to display your favorite potted plants on an enclosed porch or to keep your favorite periodicals and books organized next to your favorite reading chair. It’s a portable piece well-suited for a smaller footprint home, apartment or condo.

The frame is handcrafted from nicely-sized rattan poles in a mortise and tenon-style of construction that has drilled horizontal poles in which the vertical poles have been inserted and then wrapped with rattan lashes at stress points for structural integrity. The top shelf is handwoven rattan in a basket weave design, while the other three shelves are crafted from slender pencil rattan poles, again mortise and tenon-style. The fanciful “daisy flower petal” bent rattan upper back adds an overall dose of boho chic charm. Tortoiseshell colors are a mix of dark, mid and light brown with tan. This beauty weigh approximately 7 lbs. and measures as follows:

Overall: 36¼” x 12½” x 11¼” H/W/D
Shelves: 11” x 11” W/D apiece; 7½” clearance between each shelf

Structurally sound and in excellent condition with age-appropriate wear. Acquired from a private estate auction, so maker or country of origin is unknown.

Earthy with a boho chic vibe, it’s versatility and charm all-in-one, what more could you ask for?
