About this item

Want something a little more interesting to hang your dressing gown, bath robe or towel on? My novel hooks are designed for the bedroom or bathroom door of the more adventurous. Each appendage is individually hand-carved from reclaimed mahogany, sanded, stained, polished and waxed, and firmly screwed and glued to a mahogany backplate. The backplates are all different sizes as I have had to cut around the many nail holes in the original timber, so please do check dimensions carefully. The entire range of Choads, Packets, Stiffies and Shrooms is hand-carved from Brazilian mahogany - now a rare and protected timber - but reclaimed from a farm near Clitheroe, built in the 1950s. This timber served its purpose as the rafters of a barn, but is now living again as a limited run of cheeky household sculptures. As can be seen from the reverse pics, the timber is a light reddish brown but I wanted to create a darker and more distressed patina: I wanted these pieces to look like they had been recovered from an abandoned Victorian molly house. None is perfect: all have some flaw or other, and I have tried to highlight those in the photos. After all, if they were all identical how could you have a favourite? Each of this limited run has been named, numbered and signed by myself to make them even more unique. L 216mm x H 88mm x D 90mm.
