An elegant wall shelf designed by Walter Wirz for Wilhelm Renz in the 1960s. The shelf impresses with its minimalist, architectural design and its particularly beautiful floating effect: thanks to the U-shaped profile on the back and the concealed wall mounting, the shelf appears light and uncluttered, with no visible fixings.
The design is typical of high-quality German mid-century modernism: functional, precise, and timeless. The shelf pairs especially well with our Ulferts sideboard, as both pieces, with their clean lines and warm wood finish, create a harmonious interior.
Ideal as a discreet bookshelf, a display for ceramics or art objects, or as a complement to a sideboard.
