DescriptionDouble-pronged brass coat hook with two screws in the baseplate to affix the object to a wall. The upper hook extends horizontally from the top of the base plate before curving downwards and upwards again to create a subtle depression in the hook to hang a coat or hat. The bottom, shorter hook curves upwards from the bottom of the baseplate. Both hooks have tips that are slightly wider than the body of the hook itself to help secure articles of clothing in place.On View
