The backplate features a horizontal hanging bar and two keyhole-shaped apertures on the reverse for wall mounting. The included utensils consist of a circular perforated skimmer, a large hemispherical ladle, a smaller ladle with an integrated pouring spout, and an oval-shaped serving spoon. Each utensil handle is designed with a hooked end to hang securely from the rack bar. No manufacturer marks or stamps are visible on any of the pieces.
