It is a very versatile system, with a very clever yet simple design. The three vertical rails must be screwed to a wall, then the shelves and cabinets simply attach with angled dowels. Once the rails are in place it is very easy to interchange the shelves and cabinets.

This consists of three rails, two cabinets, and four shelves with beautifully crafted chevron supports.

We have had the cabinets and shelves all stripped and re-polished to a very high standard. This is in exceptional condition with hardly any wear to be seen. The wood has stunning grain patterns and colour tones.
