Wire Egg Stand

From Villeneuve-lès-Avignon and dating to the 1950s, this French egg rack would have sat out on a kitchen counter, holding the day’s eggs at room temperature before use. The tiered wire structure is both practical and considered, allowing air to circulate while keeping each egg separate and easy to reach. Pieces like this were common in mid-century French kitchens, especially in homes that sourced eggs directly rather than refrigerating them. Sylvie loves it kept out on her kitchen island, just as it was originally intended.
