Pedestal, 1897, Gustave Serrurier-Bovy, Belgian, 1858–1910, 62 3/4 x 38 3/4 x 31in. (159.4 x 98.4 x 78.7cm), Congolese palissandre, Belgium, Art Nouveau, It’s a plant stand that appears to be a plant itself, sprouting from the floor. Its 'branches' support shelves for displaying art objects and potted plants (though it has a support at the back, the top platform cannot bear anything too heavy).The design highlights the flame-like grain of the exotic wood, accentuating the beauty of the organic material.
