Guzmania Hide and Teak Magazine Rack with Carry Bar

Keep magazines and menus in one place by the sofa, then carry the whole rack to the next room by its wood bar.

Guzmania sits on the floor beside a sofa, lounge chair or reception seat and holds magazines, catalogs, menus or folded throws. The slim oval body is wrapped in brown hide, and a teak bar spans the top so the rack moves like a tote when you rearrange the room.

At 7.25 inches wide and 13 inches deep, it fits into the gap between an armchair and a side table without crowding the walkway. The dip in the rim makes it easy to pull out a single magazine, and the 7 lb weight keeps it steady on hard floors.

Where to use it

• Waiting room: Keep current issues off the table and in reach.
• Home office: Store folders and mail next to the desk chair.

Planning notes

Place it where one side faces the seat so the dip in the rim is easy to reach. Leave about 18 inches of clear floor so it does not become a trip point.

The brown hide pairs with leather, walnut and rattan, and it softens a cool gray or white scheme. Pair it with a Metropolitan Decor Essentials side table in a darker wood for a layered corner.

Who this is not for

• Not for outdoor use: we recommend it for indoor rooms.
• Not for wet areas: keep the hide away from spills and standing moisture.
• Not for heavy loads: it is sized for magazines and paper goods.

Care

Dust with a soft dry cloth and blot spills right away. Avoid soaking the hide and keep it out of direct sun to protect the color.
