Large wrought iron baker's rack – Late 19th century – Napoleon III period 160 cm wide – 200 cm high.

An authentic piece of late 19th-century workshop furniture, this large baker's rack perfectly embodies the raw yet elegant charm of old workshops. Made of wrought iron, it features a slender and perfectly balanced structure, composed of vertical uprights punctuated by thin horizontal crossbars. Its simple and functional lines testify to the craftsmanship of the Napoleon III era, when utility could also be aesthetically pleasing. The wire mesh shelves, with their slightly rounded edges and gilt borders patinated by time, add a warm and authentic touch. This beautiful antique patina, the result of years of work, gives it a unique character and an undeniable decorative presence. With its generous dimensions (1.60 m wide by 2 m high), it offers ample volume while maintaining an airy silhouette thanks to the slenderness of its structure. Once used to hold baking racks or resting loaves of bread, it now finds a new life in contemporary, industrial, or country chic interiors. Perfect as a bookcase, display stand, storage unit, or even a room divider, this baker's rack is a true testament to French artisanal heritage. A characterful, authentic piece full of soul, for lovers of antique furniture and historically significant craft objects.
