Shelves are for displaying, so we tried to distill this idea and create a formal language that reinforces this idea. The elevated planes and sequentially diminishing proportions have an almost religious connotation. The alter in a church, Mayan temples, and or course the roofs of a pagoda. We universally understand this formal language of elevation and when applied to shelving it creates a shrine like display for the objects in your home.

The Pagoda Shelf is made from plywood, painted with lacquer, attaches to the wall with a French cleat, and packs down flat with the use of threaded inserts and bolts. All shelves have a lead time of 8 weeks. less
