The days of imposing furniture seem to be over, and the dresser is no exception. But what to do with those plates you've pulled out of the cupboards? What if you tried displaying them on the walls as true decorative objects? This is a strong trend in interior design, made possible by wall-mounted plate hangers. We offer this product in several sizes.

Now, if you are lucky enough to own ceramic, enamel, or collectible pottery pieces, we also offer a tailor-made service that will enhance your object.
