Floating shelves are one of those pieces that just work anywhere. You can keep it simple with a single shelf as a clean, functional statement, or have a little fun by clustering and staggering a few to create an eye-catching wall display. Style them with books, plants, ceramics, or whatever tells your story. They’re easy, versatile, and make a space feel thoughtfully put together without trying too hard.
Designed with longevity in mind, we build our floating shelves using real wood species chosen for their strength, beauty, and character - materials that age gracefully and grow richer over time. Unlike mass-produced floating wall shelves made from MDF (a compressed wood fiber product held together with adhesives), solid wood offers durability and a natural warmth that can’t be replicated.
Each shelf weighs between 15–25 lbs., depending on its length, and features a built-in channel on the back for easy, straightforward hanging. We do recommend checking in with a professional to choose the right hardware and installation method based on your wall type.
We offer ready-to-ship floating shelves in 24”, 36” and 48” lengths. Each shelf is 10.5”D x 2”H. Custom sizes are available to ship in 2-3 weeks.
Care & Maintenance:
Using a damp rag with clean water is sufficient for the regular cleaning of your floating wall shelf. Remember that wood and water do not mix, so using a damp rag means your rag should not be “dripping wet” when cleaning a wood surface. Clean using a damp rag with water as needed but avoid doing so daily.
For stubborn stains, Surface Care Spray or properly diluted Rubio Monocoat Soap are the only recommended cleaners for these wall shelves. These cleaners will remove all dirt and grease thoroughly, without leaving a film or affecting the matte natural look of the wood. Again, be sure to only use a damp rag and not saturate the wood with liquid.
