wood shelf

Mounted storage surface

A wood shelf is a horizontal surface made of wood, mounted to a wall or fitted into a structure for storage or display.

The term emphasizes the material: We installed wood shelves in the pantry instead of wire ones.

Wood shelves range from rough-cut planks in garages to finished hardwood in living rooms.
