1930's Avant-Garde Modernist Flower Stand

About the Item

This flower stand is a prime example of the Avant-garde Modernist aesthetic of the 1930's. In the 1920's and 1930's there were many variations of flower stands designed by different architects and produced by various manufacturers. It was a very popular piece of furniture and every modern household wanted one. This particular piece is believed to be produced by the renowned UP Brno in former Czechoslovakia. The flower stand consists of four platforms each positioned at different heights, and are made to look as though they are floating by the elegant composition and the central pillar that effortlessly connects them. The platforms are made of solid oak and the supports are made of fir wood. Overall this piece is made up of a wonderful composition of simple geometric forms, and looks more like an Avant-garde sculpture or three dimensional version of an abstract painting rather than a piece of functional furniture. The whole piece has been recently fully refurbished by our highly experienced restorer and it is in a perfect vintage condition. The restorer was able to trace the original colour and then repaint the whole piece in the same red shade in nitro lacquer paint, exactly how it was used on the modernist furniture in the 1930’s.
