The cylindrical shaft in solid pine, composed of precisely assembled sections, rests on a robust, rectangular, cruciform base—the same formal vocabulary as the characteristic crossed legs of Les Arcs furniture. The hooks with horizontal rods ending in turned wooden balls add a sculptural and playful touch, making this object much more than a simple functional accessory: a true design piece in its own right.

The solid pine, with its warm grain and golden patina acquired over decades, reveals all the raw and authentic beauty of a carefully crafted material. The solid, handcrafted construction testifies to the quality of workmanship characteristic of the furniture produced for Les Arcs, where functionality and aesthetics were perfectly intertwined.

A rare piece that adds character to an entryway, hallway, or any interior that appreciates 1970s French design and the Perriand legacy.
