Pamono French Magazine Rack in Brass and Wood attributed to Jacques Adnet, 20th Century> Magazine Racks

This elegant magazine rack, attributed to the renowned French Designer Jacques Adnet, exemplifies his signature blend of modernist functionality and refined luxury. Crafted in brass and wood, the piece features a minimalist yet sophisticated structure: clean-lined brass rods from the body, while a central polished wooden panel anchors the design with warmth and contrast. The rack stands on four splayed brass legs, ending in a ball feet, giving it both stability and lightness.

A vertical brass rod with a circular handle at the top provides both a decorative accent and practical portability. The overall design reflects Adnet’s timeless style, where geometric clarity meets materials, making it not only a functional household object but also striking decorative element.

This piece is characteristic of Adnet’s mid-20 century work, when he combined brass, leather, and wood in streamlined yet luxurious designs, echoing the French modernist aesthetic while maintaining a sense of classic elegance.

Condition Report:

This magazine rack remains in very good overall condition, it is a beautiful element to add in any space. One of the splayed brass legs shows a slight irregularity in alignment, causing a minor imbalance when placed on a flat surface (Less visible on a rug). This does not detract from the structural integrity or aesthetic presence of the piece and can be adjusted if desired.
