Description from the seller

Antique Art Nouveau / Liberty Wall-Mounted Coat Rack – Early 20th Century

A charming and beautifully preserved antique wall-mounted coat rack, dating approximately to 1900–1925, featuring a warm pinewood backplate and two remarkable decorative iron hooks with distinctive sculptural detailing.

The elegantly shaped metal fittings, with their elongated flowing curves and unusual ornamental backplates, reflect the decorative influence of the Art Nouveau / Liberty movement.

Particularly fascinating are the two decorative metal mounts, featuring what appears to be a stylised human face or theatrical mask, adding an intriguing artistic dimension to this functional antique.

Each hook features a gracefully elongated upper loop and a beautifully curved lower double hook, combining practical functionality with striking decorative appeal.

The solid pinewood panel displays attractive natural grain, beautiful warm honey-brown tones and gently moulded edges. It has been carefully cleaned and nourished with traditional straw oil (olio paglierino), enhancing the natural beauty of the wood while preserving its authentic antique character.

The two iron hooks retain their attractive aged patina, including natural oxidation and signs of wear consistent with their age. These characteristics contribute to the object's historical charm and authenticity.

Dimensions

Overall wooden backplate: approximately 47 × 11 cm

Maximum depth: approximately 13 cm, including the projecting hooks

Two decorative iron double hooks

Two metal wall-mounting rings

Condition

Very attractive antique condition, with natural age-related wear and oxidation.

The pinewood has been carefully cleaned and treated with traditional straw oil, preserving its original character, beautiful grain and warm colour.

Decorative Appeal

A delightful example of early 20th-century decorative craftsmanship, combining natural wood, sculptural ironwork and timeless functionality.

Perfect for a traditional entrance hall, a country house, a vintage-inspired interior or an eclectic contemporary home.

Its compact dimensions make it particularly versatile, while the unusual decorative iron fittings give it a distinctive personality.

A beautiful antique furnishing accessory, where everyday functionality meets the artistic charm of a bygone era.
