Ornament-hanging hook and system

An ornament-hanging system comprising an ornament-hanging hook and an ornament-hanging apparatus,

• the ornament-hanging hook comprising:
• a monolithic filament extending from a proximal end to a distal end,
• the monolithic filament comprising an ornament-engaging loop, a first-engagement element, and a second-engagement element connected to each of the ornament-engaging loop and the first-engagement element, characterized in that:
• the ornament-engaging loop extends from the proximal end to the second-engagement element, the ornament-engaging loop being characterized as a bottommost portion of the ornament-hanging hook;
• the first-engagement element extends from the distal end to the second-engagement element, the first-engagement element having a curved shape such that it can hook around and at least partially engage with a portion of a tree branch or other hanging structure and being characterized as an uppermost portion of the ornament-hanging hook;
• and the second-engagement element is disposed between the ornament-engaging loop and the first-engagement element along a length of the monolithic filament, the second-engagement element comprising a plurality of flections including a first flection connected to the ornament-engaging loop and a second flection connected to the first-engagement element, the first flection disposed between the ornament-engaging loop and the second flection along the length of the monolithic filament;
• wherein each portion of the first flection is on a same plane as each portion of the second flection;
• wherein the ornament-engaging loop and first-engagement element each comprise a curvature path having a same single rotation direction;
• wherein while the first-engagement element is positioned upright such that each portion of the ornament-engaging loop is disposed vertically under the first-engagement element, each portion of the first flection is disposed above each portion of the second flection relative to the bottommost and uppermost portions;
• and
• wherein the ornament-hanging hook maintains a substantially vertical orientation when the first flection rests but can freely rotate on a support structure;
• and
• the ornament-hanging apparatus comprising:
• an engagement feature coupled to an elongated pole, wherein the engagement feature is configured to engage with a portion of the second flection;
• and wherein the ornament-hanging hook has a weight distribution such that upon the ornament-hanging apparatus engaging with the second flection and an ornament engaged with the ornament-engaging loop, the ornament-hanging hook is balanced such that the first-engagement element is positioned upright relative to the ornament-engaging loop.
