A petite shelf with a limewashed timber top and a chalky scrolled apron, the smallest of three matching sizes.
Audrey is a wall shelf with a whitewashed fir timber top and a deep scrolled apron running along the front in chalky white. The apron is moulded in a carved fretwork design, and a turned spindle drops at each end like a small finial. At 40cm wide it is the smallest of three matching sizes.
Hang it as a little display ledge in a nook, beside a doorway, or stepped above the larger sizes. The top takes a single object or two, a candle, a small frame, a bud vase, while the carved apron gives it the look of an old painted bracket shelf. Run all three sizes together for a stepped wall, or use Audrey on its own where space is tight.
Why we love it
◆Limewashed timber and chalky white, a warm fir top over a soft white apron.
◆Scrolled carved-look apron, deep fretwork that reads like an old salvaged pelmet.
◆Smallest of three, 40cm across, the neat size for a nook, a narrow wall, or the top of a stepped set.
◆Turned spindle ends, little finial drops that finish each corner.

How to style it
Audrey is a small display ledge, not a storage shelf. A few ways:
Set a single candle or bud vase on top near your other shelves
Hang all three sizes in a stepped cluster for a feature wall
Tuck it into a narrow nook or beside a doorway where a wider shelf will not fit
Pair it with a wall piece above for a layered vignette
Stylist's Tip
Buy the trio and hang them stepped, widest to narrowest. Three of the same shelf in descending sizes makes a calm, collected wall without needing much on them.
Care & Keeping
Dust with a soft dry cloth. Keep Audrey indoors and out of damp, the timber and painted apron are not sealed for wet areas. You will need screws and wall plugs suited to your wall type to hang it, ideally into a stud or solid anchor. It is made as a light display ledge, so keep the load modest rather than using it for storage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I get all three sizes?
No, this is the smallest at 40cm, sold on its own. The 80cm and 60cm sizes are listed separately, and the three look lovely stepped together.
How does it hang?
It mounts to the wall through the back. Use screws and wall plugs suited to your wall, into a stud or solid anchor where you can.
What can I put on it?
It is a small display ledge for light pieces, a candle, a bud vase or a little frame. Keep the load modest rather than using it for storage.
Is the apron carved timber?
The top and turned ends are fir timber. The scrolled apron is moulded MDF in a carved design and finished in chalky white, so it has the look of an old carved shelf.
Will mine look like the photos?
Close, not identical. The whitewash and chalky finish are applied by hand, so the wear varies a little from piece to piece.
Because Audrey is hand-finished, slight variations in paint wear, tone and grain are natural and add to the character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.

I was scared to open my parcel due to past experience with buying on line with less than perfect purchases.
This parcel, from the packaging to the presentation has been more than expected.
Thank you very much.

My recent purchases look amazing in my garden… my delivery arrived promptly and the communication from Chateau was explanatory as to where and what was happening. I liked the follow up emails … thanks
I am so glad I bought these beautiful Dragonflies! I only have a small front verandah, but I wanted to place them out here. Dragonflies, are my spirit animals.
I bought special hooks to place on the window so I could hang them. I placed them behind my buddha, and I feel they look very decorative and effective.
I lurve the Rocco French Provincial Lidded Canister. It's just gorgeous! My pics are not its final destination or styling. I added these very large hydrangeas so you can see how big it is and how much it can hold. The product is high quality and stands on its own regardless of how you choose to style it. I adore the antique gold finish and will be buying other products. Communication about my purchase and delivery was great, and all products were packed well. Thankfully, I'm in a 2-bedroom apartment; otherwise, I'd need a VIP card.
I love my new products and will be purchasing more. They are particularly nice next to my ginger jars, but I'm testing out places for them before I decide whether I will style them with or without a floral arrangement and where they'll be placed. This is a great quality product and the size I wanted (fairly large). The delivery was prompt; communication was great about what was happening and when, and the products arrived safely and without damage, as they were packaged appropriately. I was so happy, I wrote to the team straight away to say thanks.
I enjoyed reading the Chateau Styling Guide very much. I appreciate the collection of beautiful pieces Lucie has made available to her clients. And I agree with the idea that one should never ‘rush’ to complete a room or your home. It is so satisfying to finally find that one special piece you know will add to the look of your home. Thank you so much for this booklet. It will be a great resource to refer to.
