Usha Umbrella Stand
Eckart Muthesius, 1932
The Maharajah of Indore commissioned Eckart Muthesius to build and furnish his Manik Bagh palace. Completed four years later, the palace was a masterpiece of the Art Deco style. Muthesius complemented his architecture with his own furniture and lamp designs, including the spiral-shaped umbrella stand Usha coiling upwards like a charmed snake. The original chrome-plated version reflects the environment, whereas the new colours, black and bronze, especially emphasize the lines of the design.
Designed at a time when walking sticks and canes accompanied cosmopolitan men as a fashion accessory, Usha is above all used as an umbrella stand today and adds glamour to your wardrobe.
