I would like a dozen outdoor bathrobe hooks but all the ones I found were
either cheap plated hooks or very expensive designer brass or bronze
designs.
The hooks would be arranged on a dozen foot-wide square wooden posts which
ring a small pool.
Do you know of a simple relatively inexpensive outdoor hook supplier and
what material would you suggest (brass? bronze? aluminum?)
I don't need anything fancy but it needs to be outdoor quality.

Solid brass will be spendy. Stainless would probably be your best bet. They
don't plate stainless. ;-) Of course even these will have to be cleaned.

I hadn't thought of stainless steel.
Stainless steel hooks might work since the nearby built-in grill is also
stainless so it might match nicely.
I don't see any stainless steel outdoor hooks at OSH or Sears.
Do you know of a supplier (and do they come with stainless steel screws)?

Usually this stuff comes with screws. I often pitch them in favor of better
hardware. SS hardware is easy to come by. I've seen them in higher-end
stores, like Renovation Hardware.
A quick web search of "stainless steel coat hook" turns up:

mcmaster.com [page 2297 for SS coathooks] If you're in the NE US
they deliver in a day or two for about $5.
