This mid-century magazine rack beautifully captures the Brutalist aesthetic with its sturdy wrought iron frame and riveted leather slats. Designed by Jean Pierre Ryckaert (1928–2021), the piece features rounded finials atop each upright, adding a subtle elegance to its bold, industrial design. The leather slats, securely fastened with brass rivets, introduce warmth and texture, perfectly balancing the raw and rugged qualities of the iron.

The rack’s design is evocative of the work of Jacques Adnet (1900–1984), a French designer celebrated for his luxurious yet functional furniture that often combined leather and metal. Both Ryckaert and Adnet shared a commitment to craftsmanship, creating timeless pieces that bridged utilitarianism and sophistication. The iron structure’s weathered patina harmonizes beautifully with the aged leather, giving the rack a timeworn character that reflects mid-century design's appreciation for material honesty and durability.

This magazine rack is a versatile piece for modern interiors, blending seamlessly with industrial, mid-century, or eclectic décor. Use it in a living room to hold magazines, books, or records, or as a statement piece in a study or office. Its rich materials and Brutalist elegance make it both functional and decorative, adding a sense of history and refined craftsmanship to any space.
