An elegant French modernist magazine rack attributed to Jacques Adnet, dating from the 1950s. Executed in black lacquered metal with brass accents, its sculptural wireframe construction combines geometric precision with graceful curves, creating a striking architectural silhouette.
The design features two generously sized compartments, a distinctive circular carrying handle wrapped in brass coil, decorative brass bindings at the junctions. The contrast between the black lacquered metal and warm brass details reflects the refined aesthetic associated with French modernism of the post-war period.
A highly decorative and functional piece, ideal beside a sofa, lounge chair or desk, where it serves equally well as a magazine rack or book holder. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
