When I decide to go classical, I really do go fully classical. And this Victorian folding cake stand is a perfect example. Complete with its original support mechanism, which neatly keeps the tiers in place. Whether folded or unfolded, it stands wonderfully sturdy.
In England, these, and by these I mean the exact kind: hexagonall tiers, mahogany, foldable, fetch an absolute fortune. But unfortunately for me, I live in stingy Holland, and the price has had to adjust accordingly.
Still, it remains a thoroughly charming piece. Perfect for a high tea, or in a bathroom with lovely bottles and perfumes displayed on it. I’m sure you can think of something delightful yourself. And do make your move, because this little stand is something of a bargain.
Dimensions: height 83 cm (approx. 32.7 inches), width across the feet 25 cm (approx. 9.8 inches, at the widest point), tiers 23 x 23 cm (approx. 9.1 x 9.1 inches), circular cut-out diameter 17 cm (approx. 6.7 inches).
