*** THE INSTANT TOP TEN BESTSELLER ***HIGHLY COMMENDED FOR THE 2025 WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING SHORTLISTED FOR THE RICHARD JEFFERIES AWARDPaul Lamb is a hedgelayer. He lives in his wagon and works to the rhythm of the seasons, a way of life that has almost vanished. From the end of summer until the birds nest in the spring, he travels the south-west corner of England, maintaining the ancient boundaries of our nation.

As traditional management techniques are lost to modernisation, hedgerows and the wildlife they support have declined dramatically. Paul has devoted decades to saving and rejuvenating this important but often forgotten part of Britian’s countryside.

Of Thorn & Briar is Paul’s spellbinding account of living in partnership with the land, practising his craft with skill and preserving our heritage for future generations. Once you’ve read it, you will never look at the humble hedgerow in the same way again.

‘[A] beguiling book . . . this spare but elegant account is an unexpected delight, and as soothing as a walk down a tree-dappled lane at sunset’ Daily Mail ‘Gentle, evocative and compelling’ Patrick Barkham, The Oldie ‘This is a delightful book and one that deserves to enter the pantheon of distinguished Nature writing’ Country Life

These are great for my coffee bar! These shelves are easy to install and came with all the hardware needed. What a great value for your money, especially when you get 3 of these cute shelves. I love how they help organize my coffee bar area and the size fits perfectly.

If the set screws were white the shelves would be perfect.
Color: C. White - Modern Minimalist Style, Number Of Shelves: 3, Size: 15.7inches
I'd give 4 1/2 if there was one. The shelves thwmself are nice I just don't like the visible little black set screws. The shelves themself look great and are not wobbly at all if you install correctly. I purposely installed the bracket upside down because of the little black setting screws; I didnt want them showing because the shelves are above eye level and the screws are black and I didn't want them showing. But that made the shelf lean amd wobbly so I turned them back over the way they are supposed to be and that made them level and sturdy. I guess I'll paint the little screws.

I was really surprised at how easy these shelves were to install. They look great, and give an elegant, subtle, look to any room. I'm using them in my home office. I plan to order a couple more sets soon.
