Specification

Every Brass+Co system is built to order. We work within proven proportions, then tailor height, shelf count and fixing detail to your space.

Ceiling-hung

Suspended brass uprights drop from the ceiling to support low-iron glass shelves. The result is a floating bar or island display without bulky cabinetry.

• Ideal above kitchen islands, pass-throughs, and front/back bar counters.
• Clean sightlines through to the room beyond.
• Anchors into the ceiling with discreet machined collars in warm brass.

Dimensions

Widths: 600 / 750 / 1000 / 1200 mm (custom available)
Height: up to 1524 mm overall
Shelf depth: ~250 mm
Shelf spacing: typically ~300 mm clear between shelves
Shelf count: 1–4

Ceiling-hung notes

Structure: We’ll specify the fixing points so your builder can add hidden structure (ply or steel) above plaster before completion. These shelves carry real weight — bottles, glassware — so blocking matters.

Finishes: Our warm brass finish is sealed to slow patina and reduce fingerprints. Low-iron glass is toughened, polished and easy to clean.

Clearances: We’ll advise ideal hanging height: typically 450–600 mm above a kitchen worktop, or 600–750 mm above an island / bar counter so you still have working access below.

Wall-mounted

Slim uprights fasten back to the wall, sitting just proud on discreet standoffs. The look is architectural and precise, with no chunky brackets.

• Perfect for back bars, behind cookers, above a stone splashback, vanity / utility rooms, or retail shelving.
• Keeps work surfaces clear while putting glassware and objects on show.

Wall-mounted notes

Surfaces: We regularly mount into tile, stone, mirror, plasterboard and brick. We’ll confirm fixing type and load path so it’s safe, not just pretty.

Back bar setups: We can size the bottom shelf clearance specifically for taller spirit bottles and decanters.

Cleaning: Wipe brass with a soft microfibre cloth. Use glass cleaner on the cloth, not sprayed directly onto the brass hardware.

Ceiling + wall supported

A hybrid frame that drops from the ceiling and also bears on the wall. Visually light, structurally confident.

• Best for full-height wall displays in kitchens, bars and retail.
• Excellent where you have mirror or premium stone behind and want minimal brackets in view.
• Allows taller overall spans without relying only on the ceiling.

Hybrid notes

Hybrid = stability: By tying into both the ceiling and the wall, we spread load and limit flex. This is ideal where ceilings alone can’t carry everything.

Visual impact: The vertical brass lines act like a frame around your bottles, ceramics or product. The glass shelves read almost invisible.

Finish consistency: All exposed metal is finished together so tone matches — no “mismatched brackets.”

Standard widths & heights

We work to four core widths for clarity and repeatability. Heights are cut to suit, up to 1524 mm overall.

Width (mm) Recommended use Typical shelves
600 Single bay; narrow back bar; vanity / utility 2–3
750 Residential kitchen / prep area 2–3
1000 Over an island / drinks station 2–3
1200 Statement bar or retail wall 3–4

Finish & materials

Brass: warm hand-finished patinated brass, sealed for touch and tone. Glass: 12 mm low-iron toughened glass, polished edges.

Alternate finishes (blackened brass, aged bronze, satin nickel) are available to order.
