THINGS OVERLOOKED / CLOTHES PEGS


The wooden clothes peg is a triumph of simple design. The two timber parts are identical and the wire spring allows them to open and close with elegant simplicity.The wooden sprung clothes peg was created by David M. Smith of Springfield USA in 1853. It is one of 146 different peg patents filed in the US between 1852 and 1887. The design was improved by Solon E. Moore who, in 1887, added the coiled spring made from a single wire to keep the peg closed.
