Vintage French Brass and Glass Faux Bamboo Étagère w/ Four Shelves 70"

This elegant French étagère, likely from the 1960s (possibly earlier), is crafted in the iconic style of Maison Baguès or Maison Jansen. Known for their luxurious designs and exquisite craftsmanship, both Baguès and Jansen became renowned in the 20th century for creating high-end furniture and decorative pieces that graced some of the world’s most sophisticated interiors. This étagère, with its faux bamboo detailing and brass frame, reflects the exotic and refined aesthetic that defined these prestigious French ateliers. 

The three glass shelves are framed by slender brass legs that mimic the look of bamboo canes, topped with finial-like details that add a regal touch. This faux bamboo motif, a hallmark of Maison Baguès, brings a sense of worldly elegance and French flair, capturing the fascination with exotic materials and forms. The brass ball feet add both stability and a playful touch, reminiscent of Jansen’s commitment to blending classic European style with modern influences.

Perfect for adding a touch of glamour, this étagère would be a beautiful addition to both vintage-inspired and contemporary interiors. Its open, airy structure allows light to flow through, making it ideal for displaying book or, decorative treasures. It would also be a stunning choice in a dressing room to showcase favorite accessories, or in a chic bathroom for towels and toiletries. This piece evokes timeless sophistication and international allure, making it a striking focal point in any room.
