Beautiful, elegant and timeless.

These shelves are a great investment that we'll keep forever, taking with us wherever we live. A design classic that can be added to and arranged to suit any space. Simple but brilliant.

String shelving

The String oak veneer shelves are a great design with mid-century furniture. I used them in a sewing room above an old 50's storage unit from a shop. The white side supports let light through but are strong.

Great service for a great product

Really Well Made have been a pleasure to deal with. They are good, clear communicators and their delivery was fast and efficient. They also packed the product for shipping well.
The shelves themselves are lovely. Another addition to the elegant and practical String shelving system that I am gradually expanding.
