This rare plastic coat rack designed by Benanti & Brunori for Velca Legnano (Milano) is a striking example of Italian modular design from the 1970s. Produced as part of the patented “Minivip” model, this sculptural piece blends utility and bold graphic aesthetics in perfect harmony.

Crafted in glossy beige plastic, the wall-mounted structure conceals five individual hooks that open and close independently and rotate up to 150°. When not in use, each hook folds seamlessly into the base, leaving a clean, linear silhouette. This clever mechanism makes it ideal for compact or minimalist interiors, as well as for lovers of radical, functional design.

Perfect for entryways, bathrooms, studios, or any contemporary interior with a flair for vintage, this piece embodies the spirit of 70s Italian plastic innovation. In excellent vintage condition with very light signs of age and minimal discoloration. A collector’s gem and a practical design solution.
