Telegraph Single Hanger

The Telegraph is a designer wall hanger created in the spirit of upcycling, which is the process of reusing materials or parts of products that are difficult to recycle.

The look of Telegraph Single is defined by the ceramic insulator which come from telegraph poles. These are commonly disposed of, although their purposeful technical design can be very aesthetically pleasing if used correctly. In this case it is used to secure coats, hats, jackets and other clothing. Clothes can be hung by the hood or simply draped over the insulator. There is no place for additional loops and hooks – function has been subordinated for visual clarity.

Installation is very simple and the technical circular part does not interfere with the aesthetics of the hanger. A nice detail is the small gap is between the insulator and the metal structure and because of the small gap the insulators appear to levitate. The Telegraph Single stand out in cafés, hotel lobbies, luxury residences and of course in ordinary homes.

For better practicality and to encourage use, the end of the metal support is bent downwards at a 35 degree angle. The metal parts are treated with highly resistant paint and can be finished in shades ranging from porcelain white to various shades of grey. The colouring reflects the appearance of the telegraph insulators so that the hanger gives a complete impression.

The Telegraph is understated despite its industrial appearance. It will stand out in cafes, hotel lobbies, luxury residences and ordinary homes.

The appearance and dimensions of the hanger may vary slightly depending on the availability of the shape and form of the insulators used.

The Telegraph Single’s designers, Lubomír Dobrovolný and Pavel Kuběna, were inspired by the works of Karel Nepraš.
