The Curve Wall Shelf is a floating shelf that mounts to your wall in three unique ways, giving you three distinct looks in one piece - pick the orientation that suits your space & your style.
The Ledge - leans classic, a nod to the traditional shelf made for accessorizing
The Column - a slim architectural piece that creates a focal point for your favorite pop of green
The Nook - a low tray with the plant perched above
The Curve's unique styling versatility allows you to decide what the wall needs and the shelf adapts.
The form is a single continuous bend of layered white ash, finished with a soft matte sale that lets the gorgeous natural wood grain shine. A duo of slim brass-finished bars create a strong architectural detail that hosts the included spun aluminum vessel. Position the vessel anywhere - centered, offset, wherever the composition wants it.
The Curve Wall Shelf arrives thoughtfully composed: shelf, vessel, metal cradle, every piece of mounting hardware, and a wall template that take the guesswork out of placement and installation. No measuring twice. No second trip to the hardware store, just finish the piece with your favorite plant.
Three ways to hang it:
•The Ledge — Shelf up, bars below: style the top with books, ceramics, a candle, and let the plant live in the open frame underneath.
•The Column — Shelf vertical: a slim column that gives one plant center stage, lifting it to eye level with nothing to compete for the attention.
•The Nook — Shelf down, bars above: the plant takes the high ground on the bars while the shelf below becomes a tray for keys, a small print, or other special pieces.

Product Care
Designed to be lived with. Easy to keep beautiful.
Your Curve Wall Shelf is made from sealed white ash, plated stainless steel, and aluminum — materials chosen to look better with time, not worse.
A few notes from our studio:
Keep it indoors. The matte seal on the ash is water-resistant, not waterproof, and the piece is designed for interior walls.
Dust the wood gently. A soft, dry cloth is all it takes to keep the grain looking its best.
Skip harsh cleaners and excess moisture on the wood itself.
Water at the sink, not the wall. The spun-aluminum vessel is designed for easy watering away from the Curve Wall Shelf— see the Houseplant Care section below for the simple method.
Let the wood patina. Natural hardwood mellows and deepens over the years. That gentle change is part of the character, not a flaw.
Cared for simply, your Curve Wall Shelf is designed to be a piece you keep and restyle — for years.
Houseplant Care with The Curve
How to plant, and how to water.
The spun-aluminum vessel has a small drainage hole at the base, fitted with a watertight plug — so you can plant your houseplant two ways.
PLANTING
Grow pot (recommended): Slip your plant, still in its nursery grow pot, directly into the vessel. No transplanting, no mess, and the easiest watering.
Direct planting: Fill the spun aluminum vessel with potting soil, and plant your houseplant directly inside.
WATERING
With a grow pot:
1. Lift the grow pot out of the vessel
2. Water at the sink, and let it drain for a few seconds
3. Slip it back into the vessel
Planted directly:
1. Lift the pot off the metal cradle
2. Remove the watertight plug from the bottom
3. Water the plant at the kitchen sink
4. Let the soil drain completely (20 - 30 minutes)
5. Replace the plug
6. Return the pot to the metal cradle
A small ritual, either way — and the one that keeps your plant and your Curve Wall Shelf looking their best.

Materials
Three materials. One continuous line.
The Curve Wall Shelf is composed of layered white ash, electroplated stainless steel, and spun aluminum. Each was chosen for what it makes possible — a beautiful continuous curve, a rail that stays bright, a vessel light enough to lift with one hand.
Layered White Ash
The curve is the whole idea, and it's only possible because of how the wood is engineered.
Thin layers of North American white ash are pressed and bent into a single continuous form, then sealed in a matte, water-resistant finish that keeps the pale, open grain visible.
Look at the edge and you'll see the layers themselves — a quiet record of how the piece came to be. Every sheet of ash grains differently, so no two shelves are exactly alike.
Electroplated Stainless Steel
The rail is formed from stainless steel and electroplated in a warm brass finish. Stainless underneath means it holds its shape and resists corrosion; the plating on top gives it the glow of brass without the upkeep. The cradle shares the same finish and slides along the rail with a clean, precise fit.
Spun Aluminum
The included is vessel is made from spun aluminum, not molded plastic or fragile ceramic. Spinning is an artisan metalworking process that shapes a single sheet of aluminum over a form, producing a seamless, lightweight vessel with a clean, modern silhouette.
It won’t crack if it’s knocked, it won’t chip at the rim, and its matte finish sits in quiet contrast against the warm wood. A small drainage hole at the base, fitted with a watertight plug, makes watering simple however you choose to plant.
The pot is included as standard — there’s nothing else to source.
Designed by Jenn Braidwood
Every curve, joint, and proportion is the result of a founder-led design process.
Drawn, refined, and prototyped in our San Diego studio before being produced in small batches by our trusted manufacturing partners.
The materials are not incidental. They are the design.
Shelf up, bars below: style the top like a floating console with books, ceramics, or a candle, and let the plant live in the open frame underneath.
02 | The Column
Shelf vertical: a slim tower that gives one plant center stage, framing it beautifully with nothing to compete for the attention.
03 | The Nook
Shelf down, bars above: the plant takes the high ground on the bars while the shelf below becomes a tray for keys, a small print, or a stack of books.

The ledge, the column, or the nook. Pick your favorite orientation then tape the included template on your wall to match.
02 | Drill & Anchor
Drill through the three marks on the template to create your pilot holes. If you've found a stud, you're ready for the hanger bolts. If you're on open drywall, anchors come next.
03 | Remove Template & Add Anchors (Drywall Only)
Tap the anchors into your pilot holes. If you are installing into a stud then skip the drywall anchors.
04 | Secure Hanger Bolts
Fit the hanger bolt into to your drill bit and secure. Then drive it into the stud or anchor. Repeat for each mark.
05 | Secure to The Wall
Align the hanger bolts to the mounting holes on the back of the shelf and push the shelf toward the wall. Use a rubber mallet to secure.
06 | Add The Finishing Touch
Slide the cradle onto the brass bars and position it where you'd like, then nest the included vessel into the cradle. Style with a pretty pop of green & enjoy!

Most Common Questions
What are the three orientations, and do I have to decide before I buy?
No — every Curve Wall Shelf hangs all three ways.
Curve Left or Curve Right:
Set the shelf horizontally with the bend wrapping down one side, giving you a long ledge and a short vertical.
Vertical:
Turns the whole piece on end for a slim, sculptural bracket with the vessel resting at the bottom.
The included template adjusts for whichever you choose, and you can always re-hang it in a different orientation later if your room changes.
Do you offer this in other finishes?
Not yet, but we're working on it! Stay tuned.
Please, let us know what finish you'd like to see! We always love your suggestions for future designs. Shoot us an email at: hello@braidandwood.com
I'm a renter. Can I hang this without damaging the walls?
Yes, just plan ahead a little more than you would if you were purchasing our wall decor accessories.
Because the Curve Wall Shelf was designed to hold real weight, it mounts with the included hardware that's a little more heavy-duty.
If you can install into a wall stud, that’s the easiest path. If you’re installing into drywall, a drywall anchor (included) gives it a solid, weight-bearing hold.
The holes are fairly small (maybe a half inch in diameter) and will need to be patched with a dab of spackle when it’s time to move on.
A drill is the only tool you’ll need.
Does it come with a plant?
No. The matte white vessel is included and ready for a plant, but what goes in it is up to you.
If you'd like suggestions for the vessel's size and the light in your space, Jenn is happy to help — see below.
Can I move the metal cradle after it's installed?
Yes. The cradle slides along the rail and isn't fixed in place, so you can shift it toward the curve, center it, or push it to the open end whenever you restyle.
What are the dimensions?
The shelf is 28 inches long, 8 inches deep, and 10 inches high in its horizontal orientations.
Hung vertically, it's 10 inches wide and 28 inches tall.
I love it, but I'm not sure how to style it in my space. Can you help?
Absolutely. Send a photo of your space to hello@braidandwood.com and Jenn will personally write back with placement, orientation, and plant guidance — and whether a second shelf would make the wall sing.
It's one of the quiet perks of buying from a founder-led studio.
How Do I Know If I Should Buy One or More than one?
If you're dressing a single focal point — beside a desk, above a nightstand or a smaller wall then one is complete on its own.
If you're working with a wider larger wall, the Curve Duo, Trio, or Quad lets you play with a variety of really unique orientations and layouts. This is where the design possibilities really open up! So check them all out and don't hesitate to reach out if you need guidance.

I absolutely love these! They are in my library and a little whimsy to the cozy room.
This is sooo nice ! An unusual and elegant touch to a wall - a refreshing change from artwork , mirrors and shelves . I notice most to the pictures on the site show the lighter wood color option which i do love … but the walnut ( darker color ) matched my decor better , so i figured i’d post pictures of the darker color for anyone curious. This is very nicely made and well designed. Was easy to install too . LOVE it !
I absolutely love the design and quality of these wall planters. The combination of natural wood and sleek metal gives it a modern yet warm look that fits perfectly with my decor. The craftsmanship feels sturdy and well-made, and the pieces are lightweight but still very durable. They add just the right touch of greenery and style to my wall without feeling cluttered. Such a simple upgrade, but it makes a big impact! Jenn was so easy to work with and answered all my questions in a timely and professional manner.
I really love the wall plant hangers I purchased. They are very unique which I love. The wood is great quality. The assembly and hanging was fairly easy. I did struggle to put the wooden cap on, but that was it.
Really pretty! The only thing I would complain about is the metal that's holding the bowl is splotched and scratched up. Might need to reach out to customer service to send me replacements.
This is a beautiful and unique piece; the workmanship and care put into making it shows. I had to reach out to ask a question on 2 occasions and Jenn was delightful to deal with. I will definitely be following Braid and Wood to see new offerings !
Beautiful product and exceptional customer service! I lost the wood plug that covers the nail and Braid and Wood sent me a new one right away. My wall is a little bigger than I realized so I might need to hang a second one soon!
I just received my frame and absolutely love it!! It’s perfect in my sunroom and I was able to pair it with my other pieces from Braid & Wood.
The frame is beautifully made, like my plant shelf and v-hanger. And I love how the gold matches perfectly in all the pieces.
Shipped quickly. Easy to hang. Beautiful. I added an artificial succulent that finished it off. Great addition to our dining area wall with other B&W pieces.
It was smaller than expected so we needed to buy 2 to fill the space. Took picture to florist to fill pot as pictured. They told me couldn’t have that many plants in small bowl. But do like it
I want to love this piece, I love the look so much. I need to figure a way to secure the rack the pot sits on. Once weight is applied to the pot it dislodges the rack from the hooks. I am going to try to secure them with some clear rubber bands.
I saw these at my daughter’s home and loved them so much I had to buy one.
Watched the video on installation which was very easy to follow.
Absolutely love it!
I was so excited to receive my wall planter!! I love all of their products— elegant design, excellent materials and workmanship, well priced and quick delivery! What more could I ask for!!!
I have purchased several items from braid & wood and you should too! I just gifted the frame wall planter and the recipient loved it. She said, "oh so super cute!" They are unique pieces, great quality, all while supporting a small business. I highly recommend!
