- a plurality of clips 8 are mounted on the wire 6 and are kept spaced apart from each other by synthetic plastic tubular spacing members 9.
- the top of the central portion 4 has three upwardly extending trifureations 10, 11, 12, each with a groove 13 therein, the three grooves 13 being co-linear to accommodate a second length of wire 14 which is also held in the grooves 13 by a detachable stud 15 which fits over the wire 14.
- Two clips 19 are mounted on the wire 14 between the trifurcations 10, 11 and 11, 12 respectively.
- the middle trifurcation 11 has a blind hole 16 therein extending downwardly into the middle arm 3 to accommodate the lower end of a metal rod 17 which has its upper end in the form of a hook 18 by which the hanger can be suspended.
- the rod 17 has a circumferential groove which is engaged by the Wire 14- to retain the rod 17 in the blind hole 16 but at the same time allow it to rotate.
