{"product_id":"art-nouveau-three-tier-pedestal-stand-c1900","title":"Art Nouveau Three-Tiered Pedestal Stand (c. 1900)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA striking and beautifully preserved example of turn-of-the-century craftsmanship, this antique Art Nouveau plant stand — historically referred to as a \u003cem\u003esellette\u003c\/em\u003e or \u003cem\u003ejardinière stand\u003c\/em\u003e — perfectly embodies the movement's defining ambition: to unite functional design with the organic forms, sinuous lines, and natural motifs drawn from the living world. Dating from approximately 1890–1910, this piece was produced at the very height of the Art Nouveau period, when the movement's influence was transforming interiors across Europe and North America.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe three-tiered construction — with graduated shelves of descending size supported by a slender, elegantly profiled central column or framework — provides both practical display space and genuine decorative presence. The carving, turning, or metalwork detail (depending on the material) reflects the characteristic Art Nouveau vocabulary: flowing, asymmetric forms that suggest growth and natural movement rather than the rigid geometry of preceding historical styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn ideal display stand for plants, sculptural objects, books, or decorative ceramics. Equally effective as a standalone decorative object in its own right. Presented in excellent antique condition, this is a genuinely attractive and increasingly collectible example of a key transitional moment in the history of European design.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique Works","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58169964724605,"sku":null,"price":171.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0942\/6989\/9133\/files\/IMG_1136_2.heic?v=1780580443","url":"https:\/\/antiqueworksireland.ie\/products\/art-nouveau-three-tier-pedestal-stand-c1900","provider":"Antique Works Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
