What is a "hallstand"?
A hallstand is a piece of furniture typically placed in entryways or hallways to store and organize items such as coats, hats, umbrellas, and shoes. It usually features hooks or pegs for hanging outerwear, a shelf or bench for placing shoes, and sometimes a mirror for convenience. Made from materials like wood, metal, or a combination of both, hallstands help keep entry areas tidy and provide easy access to items when entering or leaving a home. They are both functional and decorative, helping to create an organized and welcoming space.
Examples
The hallstand by the door provides a convenient place to hang my coat and store my shoes.
