Urbandi Single-Origin wood allows us to trace back to one specific, identifiable source for geographic provenance and for aesthetic consistency to ensure that a piece hardwood shares the same grain patterns, and history instead of a random visual mix.
Each piece is handcrafted by skilled American craftspeople using carefully selected furniture-grade hardwood chosen for their durability, strength, and beautiful natural grain.
All of our hardwoods, including Ash, are locally sourced from the Central Appalachian region of Ohio.
Ohio's hardwoods are highly regarded due to the abundance of high-quality hardwood species and the state's sustainable forest management practices. Ohio's forests are known for producing excellent hardwoods

Every shelf is handcrafted in the USA using locally sourced natural, organic material - solid wood. By sourcing our materials locally and manufacturing domestically, we ensure superior quality, support American craftsmanship, and reduce unnecessary transportation costs and impacts.
Each shelf will differ because each piece of solid wood is unique. With a substantial 1.75-inch thickness and solid wood construction, these shelves offer a premium look and feel that complements both modern and rustic interiors.
Crafted of the highest Select-Grade Ash from the Central Appalachian region of Ohio, we minimize wood imperfections to provide a clean, natural look. Natural grain and knots are intentionally preserved to highlight the authentic character of real wood, ensuring that every shelf is truly one of a kind.

Installation Steps:
Step 1:
Find the studs in your wall using a stud finder, and lightly mark their location with a pencil. Stud installation is highly recommended for a secure fit.
Step 2:
Once you determine where to hang your shelf, using a level, line up the mounting bracket on the wall. Use a pencil to mark the bracket's screw holes on the wall studs.
Step 3:
Using provided screws, lightly screw the mounting bracket into the wall (do not screw completely). Using a level, check to make sure the mounting bracket is level, and fully screw the bracket into the wall.
Step 4:
Line up the holes on the back of the shelf with the bracket extensions, and slide the shelf over them.
For care, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid the use of harsh chemicals and household cleaners to protect the finish. Hardware may loosen over time, periodically check that all connections are tight.

The Urbandi Experience
FAQs
Every Urbandi product is made in Cincinnati, Ohio by our team of skilled craftspeople.
Yes. Every Urbandi piece is made through a hands-on build-to-order process. We use modern tools for precision, but the majority of the work is guided by skilled craftspeople who select, cut, assemble, sand, finish, pack, and inspect each piece with care.
Yes. Urbandi products are made from real solid wood, not MDF, particle board, or cheap veneer. Some pieces, such as certain fireplace mantels, use a hollow solid-wood construction to make installation easier and pricing more accessible while still maintaining real wood quality.
Most Urbandi products are designed for indoor use, where temperature and humidity are controlled. Outdoor pieces may be available as custom orders using materials and finishes suited for exterior conditions. Contact our team to discuss your project.
Weight capacity depends on shelf size, depth, bracket type, and installation method. On average, floating shelves installed into wall studs with the included brackets can hold 25–55 pounds per stud. Longer or deeper shelves may need additional support brackets.
Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Wipe spills right away with a slightly damp cloth, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh cleaners, abrasive pads, and silicone-based products. Keep real wood away from extreme heat, direct sunlight, and excessive humidity.
We choose suppliers based on material quality, consistency, responsibility, and proximity. For hardwoods, we work with mills in Central Appalachia and trusted regional partners who provide strong, beautiful wood suited for long-lasting furniture and shelving.
