Piece is made of beech, with a golden oak-colored finish, and twelve, bentwood hooks: six larger ones on the upper tier, and six smaller ones on the lower tier, and rests on four, bentwood feet (see photos.)

Made by Baumann in the 1960's, this model is iconic, classic and referred under number 198 in the Baumann catalog, also known as a "perroquet". The upper section swivels, and can be disassembled (see photos.) These were typically found in French bistros, during this epoch

The piece is in overall very good, original and vintage condition, with some light marks, signs of age and previous use commensurate with time, as well as a patina of time, on the overall structure, hooks, post (stand), legs, circle and leg tips (see photos.)


It has only been gently cleaned with respect to its original patina of time.


Width and depth dimensions at the maximum:
- For the bentwood legs: 70 cm x 70 cm / At Minimum 50 cm X 50 cm
- For the hooks: About 48 cm x 48 cm I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
