In short: The photo shows wooden wall shelves fixed between two tall natural-shaped uprights, beside them a coat rack with wooden pegs and a narrow shelf, and above it all a branch lamp on chains. All the products are made of wood left in its natural shape, so together they form a unified wall composition. The sizes and the arrangement are agreed individually.
Wooden wall shelves in an interior: the overall view
The photo was taken in a room whose wall is made of vertical boards with natural, uncut edges. Grayish and darker streaks, knots and wavy outlines can be seen in the boards, so the wall resembles a forest. The ceiling is lined with pinkish slats divided by beams. At the bottom you can see the back of a bench and the edge of a table, which looks like a sauna rest room or a farmstead living room.
Three products are combined in this space. On the right is a tall shelf unit with four shelves, on the left a coat rack with pegs and a long narrow shelf above it, and at the top a branch lamp. All of them are made of warm-toned wood and are left in their natural shape too. Because of this none of them looks like a foreign object: they seem to grow out of the wall.
A composition like this shows how a few small products can transform a whole wall. Instead of building a cupboard or buying standard shelves, you can order elements that match one another and together create a unified, cozy picture.
It is interesting that the products are not arranged strictly symmetrically. The coat rack with its shelf is on the left, the tall shelf unit on the right, and the lamp hangs at a slant. A free composition like this looks natural, as if the things had appeared by themselves and not been laid out with a ruler.
A tall shelf unit between natural-shaped uprights
On the right side of the photo you can see two tall vertical uprights. They are made of boards whose edges are left wavy and whose top ends are uneven and natural in shape. Four horizontal shelves are fixed between the uprights: they are long and narrow and project beyond the uprights on both sides.
The shelves are narrow, so they take up little room and suit even places where the passage is small. Cups, glasses, small jars, candles, sauna accessories or books can be put on them. Because the shelves are open, the things are always visible and easy to reach.
The natural-shaped uprights create a rhythm: their curves seem to echo the outlines of the wall boards. So the shelf unit not only holds things but also becomes a decoration of the wall. Even empty, it looks finished.
The uprights are fixed to the wall, so the shelf unit takes up no floor space. A bench, a basket or even a small cabinet can be placed under it. That is especially handy in small rooms where every meter of floor counts.
The top shelf is higher than the others, almost at the ceiling. It suits things you do not need every day, or decorations that should be seen from afar. The lower shelves are easy to reach, so it is worth keeping what you use most often on them.
A coat rack with pegs and a shelf above it
On the left side a wide board with a wavy lower edge is fixed to the wall. Wooden pegs are set in it, on which it is handy to hang towels, robes, hats or clothes. The pegs are spread along the whole length of the board, so clothes do not crowd in one place.
A long narrow shelf is fixed above the coat rack. It is very practical: you can put hats, folded towels or small items on it that do not need to be hung. This way the coat rack and the shelf form a single functional zone.
In the photo the board of the coat rack is of a darker, warm shade than the wall boards, so it stands out clearly and does not blend into the background. Its wavy lower edge repeats the natural lines of the wall, and the pegs are placed in a single row.
In a sauna or a rest room such a coat rack will be especially useful: guests hang their towels on it and leave their glasses or watches on the shelf. In a hallway or a corridor it will serve as an ordinary clothes rack. The number of pegs can be chosen according to how many people will mostly use the room. If you need only a coat rack, look at the wall coat rack of a natural-shaped board.
A branch lamp above the shelves
In the upper part of the photo hangs a lamp made of a thick branch. At one end of it you can see a limb pointing downward, and the surface is sanded and shines. Round bulbs are recessed in the branch, two of which are visible in the photo. The lamp hangs on metal chains attached to the ceiling.
The lamp lights the shelves and the coat rack from above, so the things on them can be seen well even in the evening. At the same time it completes the whole composition: the wall boards, the shelves, the coat rack and the lamp create a unified space of natural wood.
The lamp can also be hung elsewhere, for example above a table. The length of the chains is chosen to suit the height of the room, so that the light lights the required place well and does not shine straight into the eyes. The shape of the branch will be different every time, so the lamp will be one of a kind.
A lamp, like any electrical appliance, should be connected by a qualified electrician. If it will hang in a sauna or another damp room, the electrical parts must be suited for that. You will find more similar lamps on the page wooden lamps made of a branch and a log.

How to plan a wall with shelves
Before ordering, think about what things you will keep and how often you will need them. That will help you decide how many shelves you need, how deep they should be and how far apart. Narrow shelves suit cups and candles, and wider ones books or dishes. It is also worth deciding whether the shelves will be one composition, as in the photo, or placed on different parts of the wall.
- Measure the width and height of the wall, and the distance to doors, windows and corners.
- Consider the wall material: a wooden, brick or plasterboard wall needs different fixing.
- Plan where the lamp will hang and where the electrical wire will run.
- Fix the coat rack at a height that all family members can comfortably reach.
A composition like this looks best in a log or wooden house, a sauna rest room, a farmstead or a hunting lodge. If you are only planning such a building, look at the section saunas and summerhouses. And if you are looking for a shelf of a different shape, get acquainted with the pyramid corner shelf. All the products of this group are collected in the section wooden shelves, coat racks and lamps.
Care is simple. Wipe dust from the shelves and the coat rack with a dry soft cloth, and clean the lamp only after switching off the power. In a sauna, where there is a lot of humidity, air the room well after use. When the finish becomes dull after a few years, it can be renewed with a wax or oil meant for wood. Do not put wet dishes on the shelves without a saucer, so that no stains are left.
How to order shelves and a lamp

Call +370 687 25388 and say that you are interested in the wooden wall shelves with a branch lamp. You can order the whole set or only individual products. During the call you will discuss the number and length of the shelves, the size of the coat rack and the number of pegs, the shape of the lamp and the number of bulbs.

If you can, photograph the wall where you want to install the shelves and write down its dimensions. Then it will be easier for the craftsmen to suggest a suitable arrangement and to assess whether any adjustments are needed.
Since all the products are made of wood of natural shape, each one will be slightly different from the photo. That is not a flaw but the essence of these products: your wall will be the only one of its kind. If you want the shelves and the coat rack to be the same shade as your furniture, show photos of it during the call.
