Jupiter is a collection of wall clothes hooks, whose colourful cast glass discs, sprinkle a touch of playful brightness to the room, like flowers in a field. They are available in two different sizes and various colours: natural, smoked, rust and blue. Mounted on a small cylinder in solid Canaletta walnut in the natural and Wengé stained finishes, these hangers are functional and aesthetic, they can be joined in order to create multiple compositions to furnish and enhance various locations.
A practical hook with the function of a clothes holder, evokes the finish of the central metal button, available in brushed brass or black chrome. Jupiter evokes the design of the coffee table Jelly; both collections can be paired to light up any setting with an ingenious contrast of lights and colours.
