Description

This exceptional French hat, coat and umbrella stand features an elegant faux bamboo design and retains its original foundry patination, beautifully enriched over more than a century to a deep, rich colour. The renowned Deville Foundry of Charleville, France, produced this superb piece between 1890 and 1910, reflecting the quality and craftsmanship for which the foundry became famous.

The stand offers wonderfully practical storage, with an abundance of hat and coat hooks and its original white enamel drip trays providing a dedicated place for umbrellas. Its pleasing proportions, decorative detailing and enduring functionality make it equally suited to a period property, country house or contemporary interior.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Popularised during the late nineteenth century, faux bamboo cast iron pieces reflected the European fascination with Japonisme and Asian aesthetic decorative arts. Foundries in France and Britain cast heavy iron into realistic bamboo node profiles to combine exotic stylistic motifs with durable domestic functionality.

These items were primary cast from molten iron using sand moulds, resulting in heavy, solid structures. They typically feature integrated mirror glass, wrought iron attachment points for coat hooks, and removable cast iron or zinc drip trays at the base to collect rainwater from umbrellas.

Authentic period examples exhibit sharp casting detail, hand-finished seams, and significant physical weight. Look for original foundry marks or registration numbers stamped near the base, as well as natural age-related surface patina and correctly fitted original drip pan inserts.

Position the piece near an entrance, hallway corner, or foyer to provide vertical architectural definition. The dark iron framework contrasts well against neutral lime-washed stone, exposed brickwork, or modern painted walls while maintaining everyday storage utility.

Keep the iron clean and dry using a soft microfiber cloth or natural bristle brush. To protect against oxidisation and preserve the surface finish, apply a thin coat of clear microcrystalline wax once or twice a year and buff gently.
