An original and old vintage object, designed and executed by the Austrian architect and designer Carl Auböck. This is a unique version, which has an additional integrated hat rack. This is a rare and most probably „one-of-a-kind“ piece. Its frame is made of different woods, the side parts are walnut and the slats are beech. The hat rack is made of black-finished brass and the screws are also black. It is equipped with eight „S-shaped“ solid brass hooks, five in black and three in brass. They can be positioned randomly on the rows. The coat rack is in very good condition with marginal patina. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
