Evelyn and Jerome Ackerman Coat Rack

A refined Mid-Century Modern wall-mounted coat rack designed by Evelyn and Jerome Ackerman for Era Industries, produced in Italy during the 1960s.

The rack is constructed of a polished brass backplate fitted with three cylindrical supports terminating in circular white marble knobs. The restrained combination of materials—warm brass paired with cool stone—reflects Ackerman’s architectural approach to decorative design and his association with California modernism and studio craft.

This example originates from the Estate of Evelyn and Jerome Ackerman, Los Angeles, California, adding important provenance linking the piece directly to the designers’ personal collection. Functional as well as sculptural, the piece works equally well in an entryway, dressing room, or bathroom and exemplifies the refined material palette favored in American interiors of the period.

Impressed “Era Ind.” and “Made in Italy.”
