It is composed of brass brackets and copper rods in the art nouveau style that was so popular at the time.

Due to its industrial design, the sturdy wire shelf can withstand a lot of weight. The shelf does slant upward slightly to secure valuables on a moving train. This angle will hold and display hand towels, hats, and other soft goods easily.

For a 90 degree surface, you will need to extend the top anchor point about an inch from the wall. This will allow it to hold things like plants, dishes, and vases upright. less
