This towel holder is made in a family run factory in Westphalia with 100 years’ experience in metal working. Robust tubing made of pure brass is soldered by hand and the connecting joints are turned on a lathe and milled. Excess brass solder is sanded off by hand and all edges and joints are smoothed and polished. The brass is then treated with a layer of chrome for protection against dampness and corrosion. Normal wear and tear is almost impossible. When not in use the towel holder can be folded and leaned against the wall. The holder is delivered in six sections which can be assembled without tools.
