Railroad Spike Coat Towel Hook Hand Forged
Hand forged from vintage reclaimed iron railroad spikes forged by hand The extra wide hanging area is just over 1". Hand treated mounting screws included. I also have a double hook style. PLEASE READ: Items are hand made using traditional blacksmithing techniques, therefore no two are exactly the same. Small variations in dimensions and shape may be present in each piece. Items may vary from photos slightly. BRUSHED STEEL FINISH: This finish is a rustic, forged steel finish. It is not a high shine, clean factory gloss kind of look. If you are looking for shiny steel pulls this finish is not for you. some forge scale will be present. While it does have a slight shine, it is not polished steel. It is however wonderfully unique, and offers a truly handmade feel that you can't find with mass produced items. After wire brushing, I add a coat of blended linseed oil and beeswax which provides a natural barrier to help prevent corrosion and bring out the natural beauty of the hand worked metal. (Not recommended for outdoor use.) OIL BLACKENED FINISH: This satin black finish has touches of grey, and allows the texture and forge work in the steel to come through. Our black oxide process penetrates into the metal and provides one of the most durable finishes out there. Salt spray tested and holds for over 90 minutes. This finish also offers a much more complex and unique finish compared to paint, which will wear and chip over time and covers the hand forged look of the piece.
