FAQs
What is the 'live edge'?
The 'live edge' refers to the natural, irregular edge of the wood that remains from the tree's original contour, preserving the organic shape and character of the timber.
Is the Teak finish natural wood or a stain?
The product description indicates solid pine with a Teak finish. It is likely a stain or oil treatment to achieve the Teak color on the pine wood.
How much weight can the shelf hold?
The exact weight capacity depends on the mounting method and wall type. Always refer to the manufacturer's specific guidelines and use appropriate wall fixings for your wall construction.
Will my shelf look exactly like the picture?
No, as this is a natural wood product with a live edge, each shelf will have unique variations in grain pattern, color, and the shape of the live edge. This uniqueness is part of its charm.
What type of wood is used?
The shelf is made from high-quality solid pine sourced from sustainable sawmills across Europe.
How should I clean the shelf?
Dust with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Can I mount this shelf on any wall?
Yes, it can be mounted on various wall types including drywall, plaster, and masonry, provided you use the correct mounting hardware and anchors suitable for your wall construction and the shelf's weight.
Troubleshooting
Shelf is not level
Adjust the mounting bracket or wall anchors. Ensure the wall surface is even before installation.
Shelf feels wobbly
Check that the mounting bracket is securely fastened to the wall and that the shelf is properly seated on the bracket. Ensure wall anchors are appropriate for the wall type and weight load.
Visible mounting hardware
Ensure the shelf is fully slid onto the mounting bracket as designed for the floating effect. Re-check installation steps.
Wood appears dry or dull
Apply a suitable wood polish or natural oil (like linseed or Danish oil) as recommended for pine furniture, following product instructions carefully.
