This vintage wall coat rack, designed by Mathieu Matégot in the 1950s, is a striking example of functional design from the mid-twentieth century. The design is characterized by a dynamic form language, combining a sleek tubular frame with striking, colorful accents typical of the early post-war period. The coat rack is crafted from a black lacquered metal tubular frame, featuring a hat shelf with parallel bars. Centrally located is a triangular mirror set in a white perforated metal frame that adds a graphic element to the whole. The four wooden spheres in yellow, green, and red serve as coat hooks. The combination of metal, glass, and wood creates a fascinating material contrast. The object is in good condition commensurate with its age, retaining its original finish and authentic character. The construction is sturdy and fully functional for daily use. This piece of furniture looks excellent in a hallway or entrance with a Mid-Century Modern or eclectic interior. It offers practical storage space for coats and hats and also serves as a striking decorative element on the wall.
