Description from the seller

Unique set of Art Deco clothing hangers – 26 pieces – original shop hangers with advertising print

A exceptional and atmospheric lot for lovers of vintage retail, Art Deco and interior styling: a large batch of original wooden clothing hangers from the first half of the 20th century. These hangers were used at Dutch clothing shops, notions stores and laundries and still carry their authentic business prints – a beautiful time document from the shop culture of the era.

The hangers exude pure nostalgia and character. The warm wood color, curved shapes and the metal hooks with wooden spacers give the whole an unmistakable Art Deco look. Ideal as a collector’s item, for a vintage clothing shop, styling project, film set or as a unique eye-catcher in a wardrobe or interior.

Prints appearing in the set include, among others:
• Wehkamp’s Clothing Warehouses
• Hoeksema N.V. Cleaning – Dyeing – Leeuwarden
• Chem. Cleaning “Dubbeldank” / “DISO” Winschoten
• P. Wamelink Ladies’ & Herren’s Clothing Hardenberg
• Gebr. Kramer Ladies’, Herren’s & Children’s Clothing Ommen
• Fa. Wed. M.L. Roos Manufactures Confectie
• G.H. Wehkamp Manufactures and Confectie Slagharen
• Various other regional shops and manufactories

Together they form a remarkable historical ensemble that tangible makes the fashion and retail history of the Netherlands.

• Material: wood and metal
• Period: ca. 1930–1950 (Art Deco / Early mid-century)
• Origin: Dutch clothing shops and laundries
