10 Easy Pieces: Clothes Hooks

From Julie

We admit it; we're mildly obsessed with hooks, one of the more useful household items. And, as with most simple household items, it's almost impossible to find good ones. Here are ten we love:

For the Design Voyeur: the 1904 Josef Hoffman hand-forged nickel-plated hook (H 5 7/8 by W 2 13/16 by D 5 3/4 inches), available only through the Neue Galerie museum shop in NYC; $425:

A trio of good ones from one of our favorite sources, manufactum.co.uk: 1. Double Hook, W 10.5 cm, £5.50:

2. Black cast-iron coat hook that folds to both sides. H 6 cm, W 2.5 cm, projection 10.5 cm; £6.00:

3. Brushed steel coat hanger, H 0.5 cm and 5.5 cm projection; £6.30:

From the Japanese company Sugatsune, the EW series double hook; $21.20 at Home Decor Hardware:

We would be remiss if we did not include Arne Jacobsen's Vola Towel Hooks from his classic Vola series (one-inch projection); $143.50 for a set of four from Quality Bath:

Single polished aluminum hook (H 20 cm); £8 each or £42 for five hooks mounted on a rack at RE:

Aluminum One Hook, 5.5 cm diameter x 7 cm; £4.50 at Mit Hus:

Aluminum coat hook, H 6 3/8 inches; $42 for pack of four at Tree Hook:

Architectural salvage shops are a great source for vintage hooks, such as these from Cox's Architectural Salvage Yard; $10 to $20 each (shipping, tax free, to US within 5 to 7 days):

Old House Parts in Kennebunkport, ME, is also a good source of vintage cast iron hooks:
