Entrance coat hanger

This important coat and hat rack, made out of carved sycamore, was made in the 19th century. Its realization is attributed to the parisian store Perret et Vibert. Topped by an imposing dragon, it has many hooks and a tablet to hold umbrellas.
The asymmetry of the furniture, the openwork decoration and the dragon are quite characteristic of the so-called “Japanese style” furniture made at the end of the 19th century, notably by the Maison des Bambous by Perret and Vibert
