A refined french neoclassical valet stand with hollywood regency accents, dating back to the mid-20th century (1950s/1960s).
due to its exquisite metal finish and balanced proportions, it is attributed to the prestigious maison jansen of paris.
a splendid and rare asymmetrical double-column structure. The central shaft splits into two parallel uprights with the famous twisted (rope-like) workmanship in solid brass. This architecture staggers the hanger and lower bar, lending a sense of sleekness and visual lightness.
the striking anatomically contoured backrest is made of high-quality, dark, polished wood, topped with a sumptuous knurled brass knob. It also features a small integrated brass tray, ideal for cufflinks or watches.
the trouser bar sits on the shortest upright and is upholstered in an elegant emerald green/forest green velvet, creating a perfect color contrast with the gilded brass. It is finished with a matching decorative knob.
the rounded, solid brass base is complemented by three majestic, finely chiseled, protruding lion's paw feet, an iconic and distinctive feature of the jansen brand.
the valet stand is in very good vintage condition. The brass features a uniform, noble patina, without heavy oxidation or foxing. The wood is polished and free of cracks. The original green velvet is in excellent condition, clean and free of tears.
a sophisticated and functional collectible piece, perfect for high-end interior design or to enhance exclusive bedrooms. 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
