FAQs

During the late nineteenth century, equestrian sports were central to country house life, leading to the creation of dedicated wall hardware for holding riding crops, whips, and coats. These items often integrated cast metal animal heads or horseshoes mounted onto timber plaques for display in tack rooms and entryways.

These wall hooks were typically constructed from solid cast brass, bronze, or iron, which offered durability and structural strength. The metal components were mounted onto polished hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut backplates.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-chased detailing on the metalwork, natural surface oxidation in crevices, and period-appropriate threaded screws or fixings. The timber backplate will show subtle signs of age, such as wood shrinkage or patina around the mounting points.

Equestrian crop hooks function well in modern hallways, boot rooms, or studies as functional coat and key hooks. Pairing brass fixtures with neutral walls or traditional panelling creates a balanced blend of historical character and practical storage.

Dust metal and wood regularly with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical polishes on aged brass to preserve the natural patina, and treat the wooden backplate periodically with a clear beeswax polish to protect the timber grain.
