French country umbrella stand with crown shaped top, antique gold metal
4.7 / 5.0 (2613+ reviews)
A crown for the hallway, holding umbrellas by the door.
This tall umbrella stand is made from aged metal with an antique gold finish over an almost black base. The top is cut into a row of pointed spikes, each with a small ball on top, just like a crown, and rows of small daisy studs run down the seams. A central upright runs through the middle to an ornate, curled handle, and the whole piece rests on a relief foot that flares outwards.
At a height of about 78 cm, it is made for the entrance, where it collects umbrellas and walking sticks by the door. It works just as well with a bunch of dried stems and gives the hallway character all year round.
The umbrella, the dried grass and other items in the photos are for styling only and are not included. You receive only the umbrella stand.

Stylist's tip
If you use it for umbrellas, place a small bowl or a folded cloth at the bottom to catch drips. This keeps the inside dry and the floor clean on a rainy day.
Care & Maintenance
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth to keep the finish looking lovely, and work carefully around the studs and the crown. If a wet umbrella has stood in it, dry it afterwards so no moisture gathers at the base. Keep it indoors and away from moisture so the aged gold stays beautiful. The patina is part of the look and will gently fade over time.
Frequently asked questions
Is the umbrella included?
No. The umbrella and the dried grass are for styling only. You receive only the umbrella stand.
Does it need assembly?
Only light. The middle upright of the handle fits into the base, which also gives the box a practical size for shipping. No tools are needed.
How tall is it?
About 78 cm high and 24 cm wide, a true freestanding floor model for an entrance or a corner.
What can I put in it?
Umbrellas and walking sticks fit naturally, and it also looks beautiful filled with tall dried stems or pampas if you want to use it purely as decoration.
Is it for indoor use?
Yes, it is best kept indoors. It is finished for use in the home, so keep it out of the weather to protect the aged gold.
Because each piece is finished by hand, the patina and the shade vary slightly from piece to piece, so no two are exactly the same. The colour may also vary slightly between screens.
