Kind of a 40’s retro look but with an upgraded blond finish. That is some nice wood. Good design work.

thanks everyone mike i dont use a french cleat i cut a piece of deadwood that fits between the top and the bottom and mount it to the wall first slide the shelf onto it and attach the shelf to it a cleat would work if the wall was nice and flat though .
Have your say...
