At the bottom of the thick column a ring for sticks and umbrellas.

The type of wood is beech, which was first steamed and then bent according to the old Thonet technique, resulting in, among other things, beautifully streamlined chairs and coat racks.

The wood of this sturdy coat rack has a vibrant color with a warm natural patina acquired over time.
