ABOUT PRODUCTID 9896
This coat rack, designed by Sidse Werner for Danish manufacturer Fritz Hansen in the 1970s, exemplifies Scandinavian modernism through its distinctly sculptural form. The steel construction is finished with a deep, matte black powder coating, lending the piece a uniform, non-reflective surface. From a central vertical column, several smoothly curved arms radiate outward and upward, each ending in a spherical plastic cap—these details are echoed at the base, where the tripod-like legs provide stability. The proportions are balanced: both the width and depth measure 65 cm, and the evenly spaced arms create a harmonious, organic silhouette. The entire piece is a study in fluid, minimalist lines, emblematic of mid-century Danish design. The structure distributes garment weight evenly, while the plastic tips protect both fabrics and floors. Condition: professionally restored, with no visible traces of use; all original design features are preserved. This piece captures the spirit of the 1970s, a period when Scandinavian design sought a dialogue between utility and artistic expression. Its tree-like profile—with arms branching upward—references nature in a distilled, abstracted form. The matte black surface introduces restraint, while the rounded accents suggest careful attention to detail and everyday comfort. The coat rack seems to echo the quiet ethos of interiors past, where disciplined form coexisted with a sense of welcoming ease. This rack could be featured in a spacious hallway or a living room with a collector’s sensibility. It would pair well with a low teak bench or a minimalist sideboard, especially against light-colored walls where its bold silhouette stands out. It may be combined with a geometric mirror or a period ceramic vessel; it fits within mid-century modern settings as well as more eclectic interiors with Scandinavian overtones.
