Graceful Athenian with tripod structure in solid light wood.
The circle of the upper part is formed of four wooden elements, largely molded. They serve as a support for a cream-colored earthenware basin, stamped "Régal Ware - Made in England". Two golden threads embellish the rim and the interior of this container.
The belt is attached to three elegantly cut brackets, themselves established on a wooden tray, scalloped on its three sides.
The base consists of three baluster legs, turned, linked together by a helical spacer, with slightly concave sides, forming the base of this piece of furniture. This base is based on a trio of casters providing perfect stability and mobility for this Athenian.
It should be noted that this middle piece of furniture is supplied with its earthenware jug, perfectly matched to the bowl described above, and bearing the same stamp.
This charming little Athenian can be placed wherever you want in your home. Very decorative and multifunctional, it can serve as an extra bathroom cabinet, an original empty pocket, a planter, or even, once filled with ice cubes, a refreshing container for convivial cocktails.
