In reclaimed and rustic interiors, hardware is more than a fixing: it\u2019s part of the story. A cast-iron bracket with a little texture, a brass hook rail that has mellowed over time, or a pair of hairpin legs under a slab table give the space weight and authenticity.<\/p>\n      <p>For most home projects, the core categories you\u2019ll reach for are: <em>shelf brackets, floating shelf brackets, coat hooks &amp; rails, and table legs &amp; frames<\/em>.
