cable hook with red thread (the one with pink thread will be re-playced later)
these came off the eves of the house next door during refurbishment - the hooks attached a telephone cable under the edge of the roof, after it had branched off from a telegraph pole on the street
they went out of use when cables went underground, and modern equivalents tend to be plastic - i really like the contrast of the pristine white ceramic "washer" against the rusted iron hook
