The tall, architectural design combines functionality with a particularly elegant and graphic appearance.

The rectangular frame incorporates a series of slim horizontal wooden rails, creating an open and airy structure while providing additional space for hanging and organizing clothing. Two rows of integrated wooden pegs provide a total of eight hanging points, with the upper row positioned beneath the generous projecting top shelf. The shelf is suitable for hats, scarves, bags or other accessories.

The combination of the darker wood used for the structural frame and the warm honey-coloured wooden rails gives the piece a sophisticated contrast and is particularly characteristic of European Mid-Century Modern furniture. The construction is beautifully detailed, including the exposed brass-coloured fixing screws at the corners of the upper shelf.

A highly decorative as well as functional piece that would work beautifully in an entrance hall, dressing room, bedroom or commercial interior. Its unusually tall and slender proportions make it especially striking when mounted on the wall.
