Full Description
This exquisite 19th-century cast iron umbrella and stick stand is a superb example of Victorian functional design elevated through ornamentation and craftsmanship. Originally intended for use in grand entrance halls and porches, pieces such as this were both practical necessities and visual statements of refinement.
The stand features eight evenly spaced circular divisions, each framed by ornate fleur-de-lis corner joints, allowing umbrellas or walking sticks to be stored upright and securely. At the centre rises a beautifully cast column, decorated with arched vine-style detailing and finished with a sculptural handle, giving the piece a strong vertical presence.
Below, the stand rests on four splayed feet, supporting a decorative pie-crust edged drip tray — a clever Victorian solution designed to catch rainwater and mud while protecting interior floors. The iron has aged gracefully over more than a century, developing a natural Verdigris patina, surface wear, and subtle tonal variation that cannot be replicated.
Completely original and exceptionally well cast, this umbrella stand remains solid, detailed, and highly functional. Whether placed in a traditional hallway, a country house porch, or used as a sculptural focal point in a contemporary interior, it offers undeniable character and historic depth.

Condition
As expected with authentic antique pieces, this umbrella stand shows honest signs of age and use, including surface wear, fading, and areas of light surface rust. These elements contribute to its unique character and historic integrity. The structure remains sound, solid, and fully functional, with no compromises to stability. Overall condition is very good and entirely commensurate with age.
