Cast Iron Shelf Bracket | Gallows Penny End 200mm × 200mm

Traditional Gallows Shelf Bracket for Timber Shelving

Add strength and timeless character to your shelving with this Cast Iron Gallows Penny End Shelf Bracket. Its classic triangular design, finished with distinctive penny ends, brings traditional style to period homes, country cottages, farmhouses and industrial-inspired interiors. At the same time, the simple design blends beautifully with more contemporary spaces.

Crafted from solid cast iron using traditional casting methods, this Gallows Shelf Bracket provides reliable support for timber shelves throughout the home. Whether you’re fitting shelving in a kitchen, pantry, utility room, workshop or living space, it offers the perfect balance of strength and heritage style. Sold as a pair, these brackets are ideal for creating sturdy shelving with both style and practicality.

The natural antique iron finish is protected with a traditional wax coating, which enhances the authentic appearance of the cast iron. However, because this is a natural finish, we recommend applying a light coat of wax or oil occasionally, particularly in damp or humid environments. Consequently, this simple maintenance will help minimise surface rust and preserve the brackets’ character for many years.

Traditional Craftsmanship and Everyday Practicality

Not only are these brackets attractive, but they are also designed for everyday use. The pre-drilled fixing holes make installation straightforward, while the solid cast construction provides dependable support for a wide variety of shelving projects. Furthermore, the timeless penny end detail makes them an excellent choice for both restoration work and new interiors inspired by traditional design.
