I want to remove a towel rack fixed to my ceramic-tiled bathroom wall.

I can't figure out how to remove it non-destructively. On the other
side of the wall is a closet, where there's drywal I'd have to break
to get a view of the space between the walls and the immediate backing
of the tile. The fixture is old, doesn't want to move in any direction
I try to pull it. Any idea how this thing it attached and how to
unattache it?


It looks like a mudset ceramic towel bar. If it is and you take it out you
are going to have a hole in the wall equal to the base size. You may want
to think about this one.

Breaking it out while wearing long sleeves and heavy gloves is the only way
I have ever managed to remove them. Trust me on the gloves. I had the
stitches and still have the scar.
