It's most common to see stone used in design where larger pieces are concerned, but this mini marble shelf demonstrates how it can be incorporated in much lighter ways. Whether or not a given room features stone tiling or sculpture, this itty-bitty ledge makes for a soft and subtle accent for a little piece of practicality.
The folks at Fort Standard make their Stone Shelf in black and while, revealing the natural details of the material. The composition comprises a small rear panel and a cantilevered surface that connect perpendicularly with a pair of solid brass thumbscrews. You can mount this mini marble shelf anywhere: next to the front door, beneath a mirror, or anywhere you might like to stash items like eyewear, wallets, keys, makeup and more.
