Wall Hook Alf for 5 Clothes Hangers | Oak Black | Vij5

Alf is a wall hook of solid oak with five cut grooves. The hook of an ordinary clothes hanger fits into each groove, so in the space of a single hook you hang five hangers one behind the other. A design by Gustav Rosén for the Dutch design label Vij5. This version is oak, finished with black linseed oil.

Five hangers in the space of one hook

That is the idea: the grooves sit one behind the other rather than side by side, which keeps the hangers neatly apart. Your clothes do not bunch up as they would on an ordinary hook, but hang in line with space between them — useful for airing a coat or a jumper, and practical in a hallway with no room for a wide wall rack or a standing coat rack. Many people hang several side by side: three Alfs are fifteen hangers, and still only three holes in the wall.

Oak with linseed oil, or ash in colour

Alf comes in two materials. The oak versions are finished with linseed oil: natural, walnut or black. Alongside those is a series in solid ash, finished with coloured linseed oil. Linseed oil soaks into the wood rather than sitting on it as a layer of lacquer: the grain stays visible and tangible, and the finish is matt. This Alf is the oak version with black linseed oil: the oil colours the wood deep black, but because it is not a layer of lacquer the grain stays visible through it.

With one hole in the wall

Alf is fixed to the wall with a threaded rod in two parts: one part screws into the back of the hook, the other into the wall plug or straight into the wall. No screw head is visible and one drilled hole is enough. The rod and the plug are supplied with it.
