FAQs

Is the shelf treated or untreated?

The shelf is made of untreated solid oak wood, allowing you to customize its finish by painting, lacquering, or leaving it natural.

What are the dimensions of the shelf?

The shelf measures approximately 60 cm in length, 10 cm in width, and 2 cm in thickness.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The shelf has a maximum load capacity of 20 kg, provided it is securely mounted.

What does 'live edge' mean?

A live edge refers to the natural, untrimmed edge of the wood, preserving the tree's original contour and character. This means each shelf will have unique shape, knots, and imperfections.

How should I clean the shelf?

Clean the shelf with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.

Will my shelf look exactly like the picture?

No, each shelf is handmade from solid oak wood with natural variations and a live edge. Knots, cracks, color tones, and the edge shape will vary, making each piece unique.

What kind of mounting hardware do I need?

Mounting hardware is not included. You will need to use appropriate wall anchors and screws suitable for your specific wall type (e.g., drywall, plaster, brick) and the weight of the items you intend to place on the shelf.

Troubleshooting

Shelf is not level

Adjust the mounting hardware or shims behind the shelf to achieve a level surface. Ensure wall anchors are securely installed.

Wood appears rough or has minor imperfections

This is characteristic of the handmade live edge design. Minor imperfections are filled with black filler for a smoother appearance. Sand lightly if a completely smooth finish is desired before applying your own finish.

Load capacity seems exceeded

Ensure items are distributed evenly across the shelf and do not exceed the 20 kg maximum load capacity. Consider using stronger mounting hardware for heavier items.

Color or grain does not match expectations

As a natural wood product with a live edge, each shelf has unique color tones and grain patterns. The images are representative; actual product may vary. Consider applying a stain or finish to achieve your desired look.
