Set of 2, vintage, prune drying racks from SW France, circa 1960'S.

Known in French as “Ancien Séchoirs à Pruneaux" these handmade, wooden drying racks, were once used to dry fresh prunes, as they come from Lot et Garonne in SW France, which is known for cultivating prunes, and where racks such as these and many others, are found in different shapes and sizes.

These particular two, are smaller than some other ones we've seen. They both have a lovely range of rich, warm, brown-colored tones, and a wonderful forms that resemble teardrops, with rounded edges on the sides (see photos and video.)
- The one on the left, has a flat edge at the top, and measures at: H: 36 cm x W: 20 cm x D: 3 cm.
- The one on the right, has an angled top, and is slightly darker and shorter than the other, measuring at: H: 35 cm x W: 23 cm x D: 3.5 cm (see photos and video.)

Pieces are in overall very good, original and vintage condition with some very light marks, signs of age, and previous use commensurate with time, as well as a patina of time on, the overall structures, which is to be expected for piece of their age (see photos and video.)

Nice decorative objects, that will incorporate well with other mid-century, or rustic contemporary pieces, that can be used in a variety of ways: hung upon/propped against a wall or in a corner, used as coffee table decor, as a tray upon which to place objects in a bedroom or bathroom, as sideboard decor, etc.

All photos taken in natural indoor light, so colors may vary, based upon brightness, reflections, angles and perspective in which they are viewed.

Being sold as a set only. Not selling individually.

Jean-Christophe and Meredith were both a pleasure to do business with - very speedy and helpful responses! Item dispatched and delivered as planned; definitely recommend :) from Callie
Chantal 26 Oct 2020
This was a completely seamless transaction. The package arrived well within the predicted time. The cost of delivery from France was very reasonable. I received an email confirmation of the dispatch which contained very clear instructions on how to re-install the legs once it arrived. I really appreciated it. When it arrived, I received a package that was really well packed. Layers upon layers of protection and very clever packing, down to a spare screw which was needed to turn the securing mechanism in the legs. That screw was individually wrapped and labelled, carefully placed inside the drawer of the table. It was speaking volumes on the care and attention this seller put into preparing and sending the parcel. Very pleased and very impressed. The quality of the table is perfect and, now that I see the care they put in, I am convinced that all their items are equally well maintained. Great seller!
