Glass shelves look very advantageous in the decor of many rooms. They fit perfectly into various styles, and thanks to their transparency they look almost weightless.
Application of glass shelves
The widespread popularity of glass shelves is explained by several factors. Firstly, this material looks extremely light and elegant. Its transparency creates the effect of empty space, and objects placed on such a shelf seem to float in the air. Such visual effects allow you to use glass shelves with shelves even in small rooms (hallway, bathroom) or in rooms with fairly low ceilings.

Another advantage of glass is the longevity of its use. The first glass objects found by archaeologists date back to the 35th century BC. Since then, glass has been widely used for interior decoration. Therefore, glass shelves will fit perfectly into both a strict, classic interior and an ultra-modern high-tech style.
Finally, such shelves let in a large amount of light, which makes it possible to place the shelves even in window openings (for example, for arranging flower peas). Glass shelves in niches are no less widely used. At the same time, the illumination of the room does not suffer.

Glass shelves in the interior
Glass shelves are widely used to decorate rooms with various functional purposes. A glass bathroom shelf or even several will look great in the smallest room. Glass creates the effect of purity and freshness, as it resembles a piece of ice. In addition, it is a fairly environmentally friendly and hygienic material that is easy to wash and disinfect. Most often, mirrors with glass shelves or corner options are used for storing cosmetics and household chemicals.

Shelves made of this material in the living room can occupy a niche or, conversely, a shelf protruding forward. They can be used as glass bookshelves, or you can store various souvenirs and memorabilia on them. Collectibles and antiques look especially good on such shelves. Glass allows you to examine the exhibit from all sides without touching it. An even more impressive effect is achieved if the glass shelves are equipped with lighting, which draws attention to the things located on them. Various glass shelves for TV are also used, which make the interior more thoughtful and complete and, at the same time, elegant and airy.

A glass shelf in the kitchen can be a convenient place to store dishes, especially crystal. It can be arranged under wall cabinets and can be conveniently used to place glasses, wine glasses and shot glasses. The varied design of such shelves: under frost, transparent, frosted glass, as if covered with a web of tiny cracks, decorated with ornaments, allows you to convey the individual character of the interior of the room. And if you have certain skills, it won’t be difficult to make a glass shelf with your own hands.

The hall or hallway, like the corridor, will also benefit from the presence of glass structures. Firstly, such shelves will not visually clutter up the space, but usually in apartments, hallways are not impressive in size. In addition, by arranging such a rack, you will get a large amount of space for storing various small items that usually have nowhere to put. If desired, you can order a glass rack for a specific group of items, for example, shoes.
