A group of decorative metalware items featuring various styles and functions. The collection includes a tall, vertical wine rack constructed from black-painted metal wirework, designed with eleven circular apertures for bottle storage. Accompanying this is a piece of black metal wall art depicting stylized branches and leaves; the sculpture consists of multiple overlapping stems with spade-shaped leaves attached. Also included is a smaller, bronze-toned metal stand or caddy, featuring a frame designed to resemble bamboo with parallel horizontal rods supported by vertical crossbeams. This piece is embellished with multiple relief-cast butterfly figures soldered along the upper rails. The items show a variety of finishes, from a matte black paint on the larger pieces to a faux-patinated copper or bronze tone on the butterfly caddy. A single metal bracket for mounting is visible on one of the branches of the foliage sculpture. No maker’s marks or signatures are visible across the group.
