Overview
A custom white oak kitchen island with open display shelving and solid brass gallery rails — drawn around the pieces you want to show and built in our Foshan factory.
This island mixes the two kinds of storage a kitchen actually uses: closed drawers and cupboards on the working side, and open display shelving on the end that faces the room. Brass gallery rails keep bowls and platters secure on the open shelves and give the piece its finished, furniture-like character.
The body is white oak — solid frames with veneer panels where stability matters — with a stone worktop from our stone range. Shelf positions, bay widths and rail details are all set at drawing stage, so the display end fits what you actually want to show, from everyday ceramics to cookbooks.
Like every unit in our kitchen range, it flat-packs in numbered cartons and shares a container with the rest of your order. The oak finish and the stone are both approved against physical samples we courier to you before production.
- Open display bays with solid brass gallery rails — nothing slides off
- White oak body: solid frames, veneer panels where stability matters
- Shelves drawn around what you actually display, from platters to cookbooks
- Brass finish matched to your taps and handles from the same order
- Closed drawers and cupboards on the working side, display on the room side
- Flat-packs with rails in protective sleeves — no fixed MOQ

Materials & construction
How the oak island is built: solid brass gallery rails, a white oak body, a stone worktop and working-side storage to your workflow.
-
Solid brass gallery rails
The rails are solid brass — never plated — in polished, brushed or aged finishes, matched to the taps and handles from the same order so every metal tone in the kitchen agrees. Rail heights and bay spacing are set on the drawing, so platters and bowls stay put even when drawers slam.
-
White oak body
Solid oak frames with 0.6 mm oak veneer panels where a wide stable surface matters — finished natural, oiled or stained to your physical sample, or painted in any RAL or NCS colour. The same oak can run into shelving elsewhere in the kitchen, and FSC-certified timber is available on request.
-
Stone worktop
Quartz, natural marble or sintered stone in 20 or 30 mm from our own stone range, cut to drawing with sink and tap cut-outs CNC-machined in — honed or polished, with the edge profile machined to the approved drawing. Approval is always against a physical couriered sample, never a photo.
-
Working-side storage
The cook's side carries the closed storage: drawer packs, cupboards and pull-outs in 18 mm board — E1 as standard, E0 or CARB P2 on request — laid out to your workflow. Soft-close hardware is standard, and Blum or Hettich upgrades are rated for 100,000+ cycles and 30–50 kg per drawer.

Open shelving vs closed storage: planning the split
Every island mixes both kinds of storage — the question is the proportion. The split is drawn on the shop drawings around what you cook with and what you want to show, then approved before production.
- Open display bays
- for the pieces worth seeing — ceramics, cookbooks, glassware — sized to the actual objects and guarded by solid brass rails.
- Closed working side
- drawers and cupboards for everything that should disappear — laid out to your cooking workflow on the prep side of the island.
- The common split
- display on the end that faces the living room, closed storage on the working side — but any proportion can be drawn and approved.
Packaging and shipping
The island flat-packs into numbered 5-ply export cartons, brass rails in protective sleeves, the stone worktop in a separate timber crate. Cartons are labelled by room and cabinet number in installation sequence.
The island normally shares a container with the rest of your kitchen or whole-home order — one packing list, one delivery window, loading photographed in Foshan before sealing. FOB or DDP quoted per destination.
-
Drawings approved
Shop drawings, finish samples and the packing plan are all signed off by you before production starts.
-
Production & QC
Built in our Foshan factory under an ISO 9001 quality-management system, with QC photos taken at each stage.
-
Flat-pack & crating
Carcass sections in numbered 5-ply export cartons; stone elements crated in timber A-frames with edge protection.
-
Loading documented
Container loading is planned and photographed in Foshan before sealing — you receive the photos before the vessel sails.
-
FOB or DDP worldwide
Sea freight from our port, or delivered duty paid to your door — quoted per destination, under one packing list.
-
Ready to install
Every carton is numbered in installation sequence, with assembly drawings ready for your installer on site.
Care and maintenance
A care sheet matched to your chosen finishes ships with the documents. The essentials:
- Solid brass rails
- polished and brushed brass can be kept bright with a brass polish or left to mellow naturally; aged brass is left alone — never use abrasive cleaners on any of them.
- White oak
- wipe with a barely damp cloth; oiled finishes are refreshed with hardwax oil every 12–18 months.
- Stone worktop
- quartz and sintered stone need only soap and water; natural stone is sealed before crating and re-sealed about once a year.
Where it works best
Where open shelving with brass rails fits best — kitchens that open to living rooms, collectors and boutique hospitality.
Kitchens that open to living rooms
The display end faces the room like a sideboard — ceramics and cookbooks out front, working clutter behind closed doors.
Collectors and serious cooks
Bays are sized around the pieces you own — platters, bowls, cookbooks — rather than generic shelf spacing.
Boutique hospitality
Suite kitchens and pantry bars get a furniture-grade face, with brass detailing matched to the rest of the fit-out.
Period and transitional interiors
Oak and aged brass sit naturally in rooms where flat modern cabinetry would jar.

Send your list and get a costed, itemised answer — no obligation, no sales pressure.
Are the brass rails solid brass or plated?
Solid brass. Plated rails wear through at the touch points, so we use solid brass in polished, brushed or aged finishes — and we match the finish to your taps and cabinet hardware from the same order.
Can the open shelves be sized for specific pieces?
Yes — that is the point of the display end. Tell us what the shelves should hold, from dinner platters to cookbooks, and the bay widths and shelf positions are drawn around them for your approval.
Is the body solid oak or veneer?
Both, where each makes sense: solid oak for frames, edges and rails, oak veneer panels where a wide stable surface matters. The finish is approved against a physical oak sample we courier to you.
Can the island have seating as well as the shelving?
Yes. A common layout puts the open shelves on one end, a seating overhang on the long side, and closed storage on the working side. The proportions are set on the shop drawing.
How do the brass rails survive shipping?
Rails are packed in protective sleeves inside the numbered cartons, and the worktop travels in a separate timber crate. You receive container loading photos before the vessel sails.
What is the minimum order and lead time?
No fixed MOQ per piece — the island ships with the rest of your order in a shared container. Production is typically 30–45 days after drawings and samples are approved, confirmed per order before deposit.
What should I send to get a quotation?
A plan or measured sketch with the island's intended size, which end should carry the open bays, and roughly what the shelves will hold. We draw the bays around your pieces and quote from the approved drawings.
Can the brass be matched to my existing taps and handles?
Yes — polished, brushed or aged solid brass, matched to hardware samples or photos you send us. Where taps and handles come from us, everything is finished in the same order so the tones match.
How much does an oak island with brass shelving cost?
Pricing is per project — the drivers are the island's dimensions, the split between closed storage and open bays, the footage of solid brass railing, the worktop stone and the oak build (solid frames with veneer panels as standard). Tell us the size and what the shelves should hold, and we return an itemized quotation with the shop drawings.
