An umbrella stand with more history than most homes. From a château in Savoie where it remained in the same family for six generations, this hand-painted metal stand dates to the Napoleon period. The black enamel surface is adorned with floral brushwork in rich reds and greens, now softened by a century of use and a touch of rust at the base. Once a fixture in a grand entryway, it’s still as elegant and useful as ever. Sylvie likes it just inside the door, holding canes and umbrellas- or simply standing alone as a decorative waste basket, a little reminder of the beauty that lingers in old French halls.
