The stand features a finely made brass gallery with multiple divided sections ideal for organising magazines, sheet music, or correspondence. The rich oak platform provides a warm contrast to the polished brass uprights giving the piece both decorative appeal and practical functionality.

The tripod support is formed from three graceful swept brass legs, united by a circular stretcher for stability and terminating in small brass feet. Light and refined in appearance, yet sturdy in construction, this versatile stand sits beautifully in a drawing room, study, library, or hallway. Its combination of brass and oak is particularly attractive and characteristic of late Victorian taste.

Victorian magazine stands of this type are increasingly sought after for their elegance, compact scale, and usefulness.

Condition

Very good antique condition. Structurally sound and ready for everyday use.
