An overhead swivel hanging apparatus consisting of a mount(10) and a support(30), i.e. a grab. When assembled the apparatus is utilized to hang pendant objects, such as a plant or a bird cage, from a ceiling or the like. The mount is comprised of a base (12), a cross brace(14), a connective means(16), an ornamental shell (18), a pendant leg(20), and a spherical bearing (22) cast as a single piece. The support, mill stamped from tensile steel as a single piece, is an C-shaped hook with a widened U shaped grab(34) on the inferior aspect. On the superior aspect of the support is a slot(28) with a flange(24) which narrows posterior into keeper tabs(26). The keeper tabs are narrower than said slot which is wider than said leg. The internal surface has a concavity(32) bisected by the slot which facilitates a ball and socket integration with the bearing. To connect the support to the mount place the flanged end against the pendant leg and move it laterally until past the keeper tabs, thus preventing accidental uncoupling. The grab has a larger internal dimension at the top than at the bottom. Placement of the pendant object into the grab locks it into place through weight, friction, and interlocking torsion between the two pieces. Such an arrangement of components increases the rotational coefficency by means of a ball and socket integration and the interlocking torsion on the grab.
