Description
You are viewing our adaptation of a single tier Early American hanging plate rack. These types of hanging plate drying racks, were originally used throughout the 18th and nineteenth centuries in England and the United States. The approximate measurements are as follows 22"h 18"w 11"d.We are the 'Original Plate Rack People.' We have been reproducing plate racks since 1993, increasing our styles and offerings, but never changing our methods.We build our racks just like they did 200 years ago – to be used on a daily basis, laden with dishes and such. 1. We install an integral hanging brace at the back of the plate rack under the top shelf. 2. All of our shelves are cut in, not tacked to the side panels, which in essence, makes the rack a solid crate.The combination of these two details allow for weight disbursement and stability even if the rack is hung unevenly. Ensuring longevity and dependability; just like the ones made so many years ago. Our pieces do not look like 'New'; like furniture you see at Ikea, Wayfair or Bombay. We care a great deal about what we make and how we make it, whether it is a custom order or not. And most importantly, you may rest assured that all our offerings are structurally sound and sturdy – made to be used and enjoyed. Every piece is hand made and finished, therefore, no two will be precisely the same.
