Abstract: A pre-assembled array of corner shelves is fastened together by three flexible lines threaded through apertures in the shelves so that they can hang downwardly from a single hook mounted in the corner between two intersecting walls. The lines are so disposed to form an acute angle with the corner line toward the frontmost edge of the shelf disposed in the corner, thereby to force the shelf against the corner and adjacent walls by its own weight and that of objects on it to support the structure and prevent it from slipping or sliding. The spacing may be rearranged simply by moving the lines and the shelves may be readily leveled in the same manner. The shelf array is simply removed for cleaning walls or the shelves without loosening any mounting hardware.
