Metal Brackets

The Birtley Shelf Bracket in Copper has a simply stylish design, finished in a warming copper tone, which continues to be a popular interior trend.

These metal shelf brackets are handmade in Yorkshire using the same traditional techniques that have been used for hundreds of years. Just like our shelves, these brackets are hand-waxed and handcrafted, meaning each piece has its own unique appearance and markings.

 

Timber & Wax

Solid Oak

These Birtley Oak Shelves are made from quality solid oak timber. The timber is air-dried and will therefore continue to dry out as it settles into its new environment. You can expect some movement to occur during this time.

To find out more about our air-dried oak timbers, and why we choose to work with this beautiful wood, read our Air-Dried Oak page, here.

Each shelf is cut to size and finished in our workshop. This leaves in lots of natural, rustic timber characteristics and features. Mother Nature’s own stamp of approval.

In this timber you can expect to find splits, cracks, knots, shakes, waney edges, bows and twists along with sticker shadows and machine marks in keeping with the rustic style. These are the qualities that set our shelving apart from the rest. And due to the nature of solid wood every shelf will be different. Truly unique. One of a kind. Rustic timber.

You can expect to see some movement within the oak as it settles in to its new environment. Please note that placing your item above or near to a heat source can cause this movement to exaggerate the timbers natural features further, particularly splits, cracks and twists.

Fine Wax Finishes

To finish these oak shelves, we use your choice of one of our wax polishes.

Wax not only makes the timber look good, but it is also very durable. You can easily wipe away spillages. And cleaning is very simple. Just wipe with a clean cloth and warm water then leave to dry. But never use harsh chemical cleaners.

The finish is professionally applied with the highest attention to detail. And as the wax soaks into the different grains and features it enhances their look and brings them to life. The colours are:

• English Oak
• Smoke Oak

We also have our unwaxed option, ideal if you have your own finish to apply:

• Natural Oak

When viewing on screen colours can look different from one screen to another. This makes it less reliable than seeing the real finished timber before your own eyes. Because you want the perfect colour for your home these finishes are available to purchase as small samples.
