About the Item

This wall-mounted shelf is a compelling example of vernacular storage furniture, defined by its rhythmic grid of small open compartments and robust wooden frame. Crafted from solid wood, its construction is entirely utilitarian, prioritizing order, visibility, and ease of access. The warm, time-softened surface shows traces of wear, tool marks, and patina that attest to prolonged everyday use.
