Carved from a single piece of wood into a broad arc, it features a central suspension ring and pronounced swellings at both ends, giving it a powerful, sculptural profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece has been extensively used; the wood displays a deep brown sheen and wear consistent with prolonged use. The surface bears fine striations, cracks, and scuffs, with areas subtly rounded and smoothed by handling. The time it spent as a utilitarian object remains visible in its form and surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn iron hanging ring is fixed at the center; the rusted metal surface harmonizes with the aged wood grain. The overall construction is substantial—more than a simple agricultural tool, it commands the presence of a vernacular object endowed with the combined strength of wood and iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen mounted on the wall, its graceful, bow-shaped silhouette creates an elegant line within the space. It also serves attractively as a device for hanging a haori or other textiles, and complements placement beside a tea room or alongside antique furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs this is an old object, the wooden components show scuffs, scratches, linear marks, cracks, and general wear. The iron parts exhibit rust. Please note these conditions are characteristic of an antique folk implement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ROCANIIRU COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52519212351769,"sku":null,"price":109.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/9911\/1193\/files\/2026061315159.jpg?v=1781336459","url":"https:\/\/rcnir.com\/en-je\/products\/antique-other-wood-products-264","provider":"入蘆花（ロカニイル）","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
