This Aesthetic Movement was based in the emerging Victorian belief that beautiful objects should exist for the enjoyment of all. In that light, artists increasingly turned away from strict functional objects for mass production and began to embellish them with natural decorative themes. This solid cast iron hook celebrates the Aesthetic Movement with small flower blossoms and scrolling foliage.
