Brass Bean Hooks

Description

I am a set of brass bean hooks. We’re not magical beans but we’re special in our own way. We won’t grow a beanstalk, but we’ll hang all of your precious items for you, no complaints.

Curator’s Notes

Simple, functional and thoughtful products find ways to become our favorite objects at home. These hooks have become just that. They are perfect for hanging keys, hats or coats and are easy breezy to install.
