Lot 1112: A Vintage Wooden and Wire Folding Clothes Drying Rack / Airer
A vintage wooden and wire folding clothes drying rack / airer, of conventional domestic design. The frame is constructed from multiple wooden slats, likely pine, which are joined by flexible fabric webbing hinges to allow for a concertina-style folding action for compact storage. The horizontal drying tiers consist of white plastic-coated wire rods, providing several levels for hanging laundry. A white adhesive auction lot label is affixed to one of the upper wooden slats, bearing the printed text HC Auctions South West Lot 1112. No further manufacturer marks, stamps, or branding are discernible on the piece.
Condition report:
The item is in used, fair condition. The wooden framework shows visible surface wear, including light scuffing and minor indentations throughout. The white plastic coating on the wire tiers is generally sound, though there is visible surface dust and some areas of minor discolouration consistent with household storage. The folding mechanisms and fabric hinges appear intact and functional.
