A shelf can be an elegant addition to a room, but when faced with an ugly utilitarian storage system, you're much better off with TEEbooks Shelves.
The paper-thin metal ledges have been designed as subtle perches for your printed collection, and little more. Though they can create compelling abstract patterns when installed artistically on your walls, the red, white and grey mantels are meant to showcase your hardcover collection.
Despite the insubstantial look of these tiny shelving units, they're incredibly sturdy when fixed in place, they can bear the weight of towering stacks of books, affording the illusion of levitating literature. Comprised essentially of strapping back plates, rigid ledges and supportive bookends, TEEbooks Shelves by Mauro Canfori highlight the substance of your novel selection.
