Antique French Industrial Metal Rack – Dubois Lyon – Iron & Brass Shelving Unit – Early 20th Century
This rare antique French industrial rack was produced by Dubois Constructeur, Lyon, as indicated by the original maker’s plaque. Dating from the early 20th century, the piece combines functional industrial design with refined decorative details.
The structure is crafted from solid iron, complemented by elegant brass accents along the edges and uprights. The open wire shelves create a light and airy look while maintaining strength and practicality. Subtle geometric elements give the rack a slight Art Deco character.
Originally used in a workshop or retail setting, this versatile piece works beautifully today as a display unit, kitchen rack, shop shelving, or statement piece in an interior.
A notable feature is its asymmetrical form: the right side has been altered at some point, adding to its authentic character and history.

Condition
Good antique condition with visible signs of age and use. The metal shows oxidation, wear, and patina consistent with its age. Structurally solid and stable. The asymmetry on the right side is part of its history and charm. There is a minor loss to one of the small decorative brass caps on the front left upright, in line with the piece’s age and use.
