Why choose black floating shelves?

Floating shelves are available in a multitude of colours, but black stands out for its versatility and timeless appeal. Black floating shelves can transform any room in your home from merely functional to stylishly welcoming. Let's take a deeper look at the advantages of choosing black floating shelves.

Timeless elegance

Black floating shelves exude timeless elegance that outlasts transient design trends. The classic colour adds a touch of sophistication, making it a great choice for modern and traditional design styles. Additionally, the versatility of black floating shelves allows them to blend effortlessly with changing décor styles.

Depth and contrast

When paired with lighter décor or wall colours, black floating shelves create a contrast, drawing the eye and making your space more dynamic. Creating contrast using colour is also a great way to add depth to a space.

Black is cosy

Adding black floating shelves to a room instantly makes it feel warm, welcoming, and intimate.  This makes them a great choice for the living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom. For example, you can use dark floating shelves in combination with accent chairs in the same colour to create a reading nook.

Easy to maintain

With black floating shelves, you’ll spend more time using them to store and organise your things than cleaning them. Dirt and stains are less noticeable on black furniture than on any other colour. This is especially beneficial if you have kids at home.

Black floating shelves in different materials

We have black floating shelves in a variety of materials, including engineered wood, glass, steel, wood, and MDF. Your choice of material will determine the durability of your floating wall shelf. Below, we take a closer look at each material to help you make an informed decision.

Black wooden floating shelves

The sturdiness of wood combined with the long-lasting durability of the black finish means these floating shelves can hold up to the rigours of everyday use. This makes them a practical choice for homeowners looking for a floating wall shelf that maintains its integrity over a long period. Additional black wooden floating shelves require little maintenance. The dark finish makes scratches less visible and cleaning is as simple as a quick wipe-down.

Black MDF floating shelves

MDF is a great alternative to solid wood. Black floating shelves constructed from these materials are not only cheaper but also have a smooth surface, which allows for excellent finish quality. For eco-conscious people, MDF is a great choice as it is made from wood processing residues and by-products. Additionally, MDF can be cut and shaped in different ways to suit various design requirements.

Black glass floating shelves

Made of tempered glass, these floating shelves are safe and durable. The process of tempering glass increases its strength and resistance, so it's safe for both adults and children. This also means it can hold more weight than regular glass. The dark glass also looks amazing. No one can deny the appeal of sleek, dark glass.

Black steel floating shelves

Black floating shelves made from steel are stronger and longer lasting. They can hold more weight than other materials. They are ideal for those who want to maximise storage space in their homes. Steel floating shelves are however heavier and therefore require stronger mounting brackets.
