ABOUT PRODUCTID 30549
This umbrella stand, produced in Poland in the 1970s, exemplifies Space Age design typical of the Polish People’s Republic era. Its construction features a slender metal rod with a brushed, subtly glossy finish, connecting a wide, cylindrical top rim to a matching molded plastic base in a saturated, matte red. White accents appear on the base insert, while four evenly spaced circular cutouts add visual lightness and playful rhythm, characteristic of the Space Age aesthetic. The proportions are balanced – the narrow metal rod contrasts with the geometric, substantial plastic rings. Visible screw connections at the base emphasize the straightforward, functional construction. The plastic surfaces show only minor scuffs and signs of use consistent with age, with no major damage. The condition is described as good – preserved in original state, with no signs of restoration or significant defects.
The form of this piece tells the story of the 1970s, a time when optimistic geometry and bold color defined daily life. The deep red paired with white accents evokes an era of forward-looking enthusiasm, lightness, and playful form, all hallmarks of Space Age design. The stand seems to invite users into a world where even mundane objects could acquire a dynamic, futuristic silhouette. The metal rod, like an axis, unites the two rings, while the interplay of light across matte plastic and glossy metal recalls the era’s fascination with technology and the space race – themes prominent in Polish design of that decade.
This umbrella stand would work well in an entryway or living room with bold
