Pantry Rail














Pantry Rail
These are currently available for pre-order and will be shipped in November.
• Material:
Crafted from two turned spindles of solid sapele hardwood with a warm, rich grain, shaped in a subtle bamboo-style profile. Finished with raw sand-cast bronze end brackets that add weight, contrast, and a sense of permanence. The combination of hardwood and bronze gives the piece natural warmth and textural depth.
• Design:
A refined double towel rail designed for compact utility. Ideal for hanging tea towels, hand towels, or cloths in kitchens, pantries, larders, WCs, or bathrooms. The gently turned hardwood rods echo a bamboo rhythm—understated but full of character—while the raw bronze brackets offer structural balance and a nod to traditional fittings.
• Style advice from Mark:
We wanted something that felt like it belonged in a working Victorian scullery—but smarter. This rail adds a bit of grace to a functional corner. I use one in my own kitchen on the back of the larder door for tea towels. It works particularly well mounted under a shelf, on a panel, or behind a door—anywhere you need a dedicated spot for a towel that doesn’t get in the way.
• Installation:
The rail comes fully assembled, but gains its full strength and stability once mounted to a wall. Wall-mounted and face-fixed using the two cast bronze brackets. Supplied with brass screws.
• Craftsmanship:
Each bracket is cast in raw bronze using traditional methods and hand-finished in Britain. The sapele hardwood spindles are turned in small batches by a UK woodturner.
• Finish Notes:
The bronze is left raw and unlacquered, allowing it to develop a natural patina with age and use. The sapele hardwood is lightly waxed to bring out its grain and offer a soft sheen. Variations in tone, grain, and surface are part of the character of both materials.
• Size Information:
Approx. 14 inches (36cm) wide between brackets, and projects 4 inches (10cm) from the wall. The rail is designed to hold 2 regular tea towels or up to 4 smaller hand towels, with two towels per level.
