Description
This pair of 1950s clothes hangers comes from the Werkstätte Carl Auböck workshop. The flat wooden bodies are softly rounded at the ends and feature curved brass hooks screwed into the wood.
The minimalist design relies on the contrast between the broad shoulder shape and the narrow metal hooks. The grain and waxed surfaces give these two everyday objects their individual character.
