Rattan shelf, French Riviera, 1960s

1960s rattan bookcase or shelf, France. With its rounded shapes and lovely hand-crafted details, this arched shelf, which can also be used as a room divider, is truly one of a kind. The design, with two taller curved sections on the left and right and a slightly shorter straight section in the middle, is a classic example of understated elegance, while the style is reminiscent of the Californian or French Riviera coastlines. The item is in very good vintage condition, with normal signs of wear consistent with age.
