Wire Grid Wall Shelf with Wood Base, Black Metal Hanging Display Rack

A wall shelf built from two simple things: a light wood board to set things on, and a black wire grid behind it that hangs flat against the wall. It gives the keys, the plant and the little pile of everyday things a place at eye level, and it looks light enough that a bare wall still feels open around it.

The top rail of the grid rests on two small hooks or screws, so it goes up in minutes and comes down just as easily. It comes in three lengths, from a short one for a narrow spot to a long one that runs the width of a desk.

A shelf you can see straight through

A solid wall shelf is a block of wood that fills its patch of wall whether there is anything on it or not. This one is mostly air. The back is a grid of thin black wire in squares about an inch and a half across. At each end a single diagonal wire runs from the top corner down to the front of the board, so from the side the shelf is an open triangle.

The wall shows through every square. On a pale wall the frame reads as a clean black outline, and on brick, wood paneling or a dark paint color it sits back and lets the things on the board do the talking.

The grid is useful as well as good to look at. A postcard, a photo or a note clips to the wires with a small binder clip, and a tall frame or a book can lean back against it instead of sliding off the board. The exact number of squares can vary slightly from one shelf to the next.

Room for the small things that have nowhere to go

By the front door it holds keys, sunglasses and the mail. Nothing ends up on the hall floor. Over a bathroom sink it takes a couple of bottles and a rolled hand towel, and in a kitchen it can carry a row of spice jars or a small herb pot within reach of the counter.

Above a desk it keeps pens, a notebook and a photo off the work surface, and two of them hung one above the other make a neat little display wall. Beside a bed it does the job of a nightstand where there is no floor space for one, holding a phone, a pair of glasses and the book you are halfway through.

Up in minutes, and easy to move

There are no brackets to line up and no shelf pins to level. Put two hooks or screws in the wall at the width of the frame and lift the shelf on, so the top rail of the grid sits in them. It hangs flat against the wall with the board level in front of you. If you want it somewhere else next month, lift it off and the wall is left with two small holes.

The black frame has a rust-resistant finish, so it is at home in a bathroom as well as a living room.
