RACK UMBRELLA STANDS

Designed By Anette Ponholzer & Fritz Frenkler

Minimalism, design and function.

The RACK umbrella stand is made from square-section metal tubing. It is available in two designs, round or square, and several different versions.

Those powder-coated in black or white can also be upturned and used as side tables or for handy storage.

The polished chrome version can be used as an umbrella stand only. Fine and functional.
