Funky 1950s plant stand / planter with Formica covered planting trough and shelf. I have repainted the inner trough with the same yellow as original, as the paint was a little scrappy and I have also gone over the black legs which was also the original colour. The planter has a couple of wee faults - there is a small scuff on the red shelf (photo 8) and a small red mark on the purple part of the planter (photo 9).
This can be turned to the back, of course..... Or may be able to be removed. All in all though, for it's age, which will be about 70 years plus now, this is a nice example. Sturdy, and screaming mid century.
