Each wooden element of Sciangai constitutes a ground support at its lower end and a support for hats, coats and other garments at its upper end. The components are connected to each other just above the centre, creating a wide circumference of supports at the base, which ensures stability, and a more collected set of hooks for clothes at the top.
