A striking late Victorian cast iron umbrella stand, beautifully modelled as an upside-down umbrella with openwork panels and a sculptural fist-shaped handle. Finished in original blackened paint, this stand combines function with high decorative impact, perfect for a period hallway or traditional entrance. A rare and whimsical example of 19th-century cast iron design.

Good decorative condition with age related wear. One section of the frame has a small historic crack, and one foot is missing, though the stand remains stable and displays well overall.
