Minimalist Umbrella Stand by Eva Schildt

It’s raining outside and, as usual, I am looking for my umbrella and also for a place where to put it once I’m home with the water dripping from it. Yes, I know, there are certain things you only notice when you need them and the umbrella stand is one of them. It seems to stand in the way the rest of the time. Any way, having rain in mind I found this Minimalist Umbrella Stand by Eva Schildt and I thought I should share.

The umbrella stand is very simple, yet suggestive and you immediately notice the umbrella shape in the hallway. It is made of lacquered metal and is pretty sturdy, so it will support the weight of more umbrellas placed there. It is coloured in light blue and has an artificial sponge at the base in order to absorb all the water dripped from the umbrella. It is 2′ 4″ high and you can have it now for $179.
