F.lli Proserpio Mid-Century Italian Teak Wall Coat Rack, 1950s

Elevate your entryway with a definitive piece of 1950s Italian Mid-Century Modernism. This floor-to-ceiling coat rack, crafted by the renowned F.lli Proserpio, is a masterclass in linear geometry and material warmth. The structure features a rhythmic sequence of horizontal teak-veneered solid wood slats. Each slat is finished with subtly rounded edges, creating a soft architectural dynamism that catches the light beautifully. The warmth of the teak is perfectly juxtaposed against the industrial soul of the hand-forged black lacquered iron components. Equipped with four original hand-wrought iron hangers, finished in a deep matte black lacquer. The iron feet (top and bottom) are extendable by approximately 8 cm in total (4+4), allowing for a precise fit within your space. Designed for wall-mounting via discreet brackets located on the upper slat, ensuring a secure and flush fit. This piece has undergone a professional conservative restoration. It remains solid, robust, and ready for daily use. Minor vintage traces remain, preserving an authentic patina that tells its seventy-year history. A rare find for collectors, this rack transforms a functional necessity into a sculptural statement of Italian heritage. H.272 / D.5 / W.90 (cm) .
