Furniture Salvage Piece Repurposed Into Coat Rack

This piece of salvage I believe was from a sideboard. I'm not positive, but I liked the details and the shape of it so Idecided to give it a makeover. I removed all of the loose and broken wood carving details, except for a small section at the top that was still intact. The entire piece was cleaned, sanded, primed, painted, lightly distressed and sealed with a protective matte sealer. I waivered on making this into a sign that simply said ANTIQUES on it or a coat rack. Ultimately, I decided on a coat rack. I added four brass hooks and it was finished.
