I hesitated to purchase this hook based on the picture, as the finish looks much lighter than the oil rubbed bronze fixtures already installed in our bath, but I took a chance. I'm glad I did - the finish is actually a richer color than that pictured and the hook is quite hefty. It's described as a robe hook, but we use it as a towel hook just outside our shower door on a spot on the wall where a towel bar or ring wouldn't fit. It looks beautiful and takes up little space in the process.
