Fork Hangers

While browsing in a gift shop in Canada I noticed several old fashioned dinner forks attached to a piece of driftwood board, formed to make a rustic but neat looking row of coat hooks.
The thing is, I couldn't see how the forks where attached to the wood, as there was no visible screw holes showing and I didn't like to take it off the wall just in case I couldn't get it back.
Anyway I got to thinking I could make one at home easily enough, as I have some similar old silver plaited spoons.
The fork handles (no not four candles) had been bent round to form the hooks and I still can't for the life of me figure out how those forks where attached to the wood ?
I anyone can solve the forking mystery, would be most grateful.

If you can get a local jeweler to weld a bolt ( long enough to go through a piece of wood) onto the inside bowl of each spoon you could then drill through & apply a nut to each bolt at the back (countersunk) of your coathanger cross member. Job done & looking very smart. WR.
