Wall-Mounted Wooden Dishes

The Balcon Shelf Series Lets You Showcase Small Individual Possessions

— September 7, 2012 — Art & Design
The visually commanding appearance of most wall-mounted ledges can be avoided with the creative installation of the Balcon Shelf Series. The collection comprises a set of tiny circular timber dishes that act as protruding pedestals for holding small objects.

Decorating with Inga Sempe's Moustache pieces is very simple, requiring the quick use of an electric drill and the manual turning of the single fixed screw into place. You apply the petite platforms to the wall by an easy turning motion until each is tightly gripped in its place.

The lovely pale beech wood bowls and plates are ideal for the storage of frequently used items or for setting up more permanent displays. One might particularly enjoy the whimsical vanity mirror attached to one piece from the Balcon Shelf Series and the way that a handful of ledges can be arbitrarily arranged.
