Add beautiful natural wood tones to any space with our solid black walnut floating shelves. Black walnut shelves are our most popular, with their prized rich, chocolate-brown heartwood and contrasting light cream-colored sapwood. The grain can be straight, wavy, or occasionally curly, making for an eye-catching wall accent. The contemporary style of these flat-edge shelves delivers a minimalist appearance with flat surfaces and straight edges. Use these beautiful floating shelves in hallways, as office shelving, or as kitchen shelves.

Each shelf we make is one piece of solid black walnut wood we cut to size from thick wood slabs we saw and air-dry for 2 years. After 2 years, wood slabs are kiln-dried, cut to size, routed, and drilled to accept their hidden floating shelf bracket. Shelves are then finished by our skilled finishers using a sprayed catalyzed conversion varnish (CCV) that seals the wood, protects it from scratches and water marks, and is maintenance-free. Additionally, CCV is permanent; it enhances the wood's color and character while leaving a satin-smooth, 20-sheen finish.
Our 2.25” shelf thickness provides the space needed to fit our heavy-duty floating shelf bracket, hiding it out of sight inside the wood shelf when installed. Our shelves are solid hardwood, and our reliable brackets hold them securely to the wall (max. weight capacity per wood wall stud is 50#). Each shelf comes complete with its bracket, mounting hardware, and installation manual. All our shelves are easy to mount and install within 15 minutes.
