Its construction is based on aluminum tubes in a warm, brass-gold metal shade with a satin, matte sheen. Five solid, curved hooks ensure practicality of use. The upper shelf is woven with black and gold fishing line or steel wire, creating a graphic, zigzag pattern typical of the energetic style of the 1970s. The side ends are emphasized by solid caps made of matte black plastic or bakelite. The proportions of the hanger – wide and low with rounded corners – evoke the slightly aerodynamic character typical of the era. The joints are aesthetically pleasing, with no visible screws or additional fasteners. Very good condition – minimal patina, no damage, fishing line shows no signs of stretching. This object reflects the spirit of the 1970s: it speaks the language of rhythm and optimism that prevailed in German interiors, where golden accents met graphic lightness. The woven shelf seems to tell the story of homes where design was meant to express temperament and a sense of everyday order. The solidity of the hooks suggests that objects from that time were meant to serve for a long time and be not only a decoration, but also a partner in the daily ritual of returning home. This coat rack can be introduced into a hallway with a distinctive, graphic palette or combined with metal, glass, or lacquered furniture, emphasizing the contrasts that dominated the mid-century modern style. It works well surrounded by geometric mirrors, soft textiles, or minimalist wallpaper; it is worth combining it with black and gold accents or individual items from the rockabilly era to achieve a harmonious dialogue between vintage and modernity.
