ABOUT PRODUCTID 2623
This magazine rack, designed by Tony Paul in the USA in the 1950s, exemplifies classic mid-century modern style: its entire form is based on a geometric, openwork structure made of matte black steel rods. The design is distinguished by clean, angular lines and a symmetrical, architectural silhouette, while the slender, splayed legs finish with original, spherical wooden feet in a warm tone and satin finish. Construction details, such as precise welded joints at the rod intersections, attest to the high quality of craftsmanship. The metal surface shows no signs of discoloration or corrosion. Dimensions: height 28 cm, width 50 cm, depth 20 cm. The rack is sized to hold magazines and newspapers, offering stability due to its heavy, solid base. Preserved in excellent condition, with no visible signs of wear or damage. This magazine rack speaks in the voice of 1950s American modernism: simplicity here goes hand in hand with practicality, and the black rods create a graphic interplay of light and shadow. The wooden feet gently warm the industrial outline, as if to remind that modernity can be close to everyday life. Each line appears intentional, as though the design tells a story about an orderly world where every detail finds its place. The rack would suit a living room styled in mid-century modern spirit or in eclectic, collector’s interiors. It can be paired with low teak coffee tables, armchairs with simple forms, or metallic accents from the same era. It is worth combining it with a minimalist standing lamp or placing it by a sofa with a thick, woolen fabric—here, the contrast between black metal and warm wood will be clearly visible, and the rack will serve as a subtle, functional accent in the space.
