Antique French Railway Brass Hat & Coat Rack Portmanteau

1900 - 1920
Description

An elegant antique French brass railway portmanteau luggage rack dating from circa 1920s. Racks like these were used on French Pullman Railway trains not dissimilar to the Famous Orient-Express, which operated between Paris and Istanbul.

With cast brackets supporting two upper bars for hats and a lower bar fitted with 5 sliding coat hooks. This is a really good example, with wonderful detailing to the brackets, the bars terminating in ornate brass acorn finials (which can unscrew). With fantastic untouched patina to the brass, this is a good quality heavy piece. Would look great in a hall or in a bathroom for towels or even in a kitchen for hanging pots and pans.
