Title: Vintage brass magazine rack, embossed foliate Indian export fireside paper holder, twisted rope handles, late 20th century

Description:
Vintage brass magazine rack with crisp foliate embossing and twisted rope handles.
Perfect beside a fireplace, reading chair, or sofa where you want both storage and a warm metallic accent.

This piece belongs to the broad family of Indian export brass dÃ©cor made for Western interiors in the later 20th century. The folded, faceted profile and symmetrical handles give it a modern, geometric feel, while the allover foliate pattern echoes Indo-Persian motifs in a decorative, accessible way.
