📌 Description
A simple, beautifully minimal floating shelf made from a chunky 1″ thick piece of premium Baltic birch plywood.
The clean, utilitarian character of the exposed birch ply creates a sleek contemporary appearance, while the natural oiled finish brings out the warmth, grain and layered edge detail of the material.
A ¼″ groove runs across the top of the shelf, providing a secure resting point for standing and leaning pictures, artwork and prints against the wall.
The shelf fixes directly to the wall through the front face for a straightforward, secure installation. Once fitted, two solid American Black Walnut plugs conceal the screw heads, adding a small contrasting detail to the otherwise minimal design.
A simple, functional floating shelf that works beautifully as a picture ledge, art display shelf or clean architectural wall shelf.

🖐 Handmade in England
Each shelf is individually made to order in our UK workshop using premium Baltic birch plywood and solid American Black Walnut, finished with natural oils and traditional woodworking techniques.
As we work with real wood, natural variations in grain, colour and plywood layering make every shelf slightly different.
Small-batch, carefully crafted and designed to last — never mass produced.

Privacy policy
This Privacy Policy describes how and when I collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from me, contact me, or otherwise use my services through Etsy.com or its related sites and services.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control, including Etsy or any third party services you access through Etsy. You can reference the Etsy Privacy Policy to learn more about its privacy practices.
Information I Collect
To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorised Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order of jewellery, for example), if you contact me directly.
Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It
I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:
as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list;
if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
as necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
Service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery companies. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
Business transfers. If I sell or merge my business, I may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.
Compliance with laws. I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce my agreements, terms and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.
Data Retention
I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in my Privacy Policy. However, I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce my agreements. I generally keep your data for the following time period: 4 years.
Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU
I may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. As a result, I may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction. If I am deemed to transfer information about you outside of the EU, I rely on Privacy Shield as the legal basis for the transfer, as Google Cloud is Privacy Shield certified.
Your Rights
If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. I describe these rights below:
Access. You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you by contacting me using the contact information below.
Change, restrict, delete. You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (like where I am required to store data for legal reasons) I will generally delete your personal information upon request.
Object. You can object to (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from me after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, I will delete your personal information unless I have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.
Complain. If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about my use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority.

Frequently Asked Questions
Custom and personalised orders
I do accept requests for custom sizes of the existing product lines in my shop. Of course some requests may not be possible, but please ask and where possible I'll make it happen.
Customs Duties & instances of Delays caused by customs.
Please note that import taxes and customs duties are not included in the item price. These charges are the responsibility of the customer. There are also some cases where delays happen due to customs clearance, and this is outside of our control.
Can I return a custom order?
Because custom orders are specific to your specification, I can't resell them. Therefore I will only be able to accept returns of these types of orders if the product is faulty.
Who pays for shipping when I return an item?
Buyers are responsible for return postage costs. If the item is not returned in its original condition, the buyer is responsible for any loss in value.
Is the initial delivery deducted from my refund if I return an item?
Yes, the amount you paid for delivery will be deducted from the refund once the item is returned
Will I have to pay import taxes if I’m in the U.S?
Not usually. Under current U.S. customs rules, imports from the UK under $800 fall within the de minimis threshold, which means no import duties, taxes, or fees are typically charged.

Had a specific idea to put these shelves to work - didn't quite work out - but love the design and will be using them for a different set of images!

I bought two shelves for the bathroom, this one to hold a hand soap bottle and it is perfect. Thank you!
