A Faux Bamboo Magazine Rack

A mid-century faux bamboo cast iron magazine rack, the painted frame in imitation of bamboo shoots, having a looped carrying handle.

This Asian inspired magazine rack demonstrates once again that the allure of chinoiserie endures through the centuries and that bamboo is as chic today as ever. The iron reproduction, however, is more durable than the organic cane it was modelled on while its vintage, mellow patina is just as warm and pleasing.
