The Curios Chapel — Curio Display Shelf, Gothic Wall Cabinet, Hand-Painted
The Curios Chapel — Curio Display Shelf, Gothic Wall Cabinet, Hand-Painted
The Curios Chapel — A little cathedral architecture for walls that prefer something less ordinary.
An ornate wall-mounted display shelf built around pointed arches, gothic tracery, twisted columns, sculpted scrollwork and a dramatic carved bracket beneath the shelf.
Its layered architectural detailing gives the piece the character of a miniature cathedral façade, creating a striking backdrop for small curiosities, decorative objects and carefully chosen displays.
The shelf is designed to make a statement even when left empty, with deep relief and shadow bringing out the details across the arches, columns and ornamental carving.

Finish options
- Matte Black — our standard finish. Deep matte PLA that holds shadow and shows every sculpted edge.
- Antique Silver — hand-painted, drybrushed by us in the workshop so the raised detail lifts and the recesses stay dark. Each one is done individually, so no two are ever quite the same.
- Antique Bronze — hand-painted, drybrushed by us in the workshop so the raised detail lifts and the recesses stay dark. Each one is done individually, so no two are ever quite the same.
- Other (message me) — the same hand-painted finish in colours of your choosing, for the same price. Send us a message before you order and tell us what you have in mind, and we will say honestly whether we can do it justice.

Made and posted in Ireland
Printed, finished and packed by the two of us in Dublin, and posted from Ireland — so EU orders arrive without customs charges or import delays. Pieces in matte black go out in 1-3 working days; hand-painted ones take 3-5, because the paint needs time to dry properly between coats.
Product safety
- Decorative item for indoor use only.
- Designed for light display items only. Please don't overload it.
- Not intended as a structural shelf or for heavy objects.
- Mount securely using fixings suited to your wall type. Adult installation recommended.
- Not a toy. Keep away from young children.
- Keep away from excessive heat, open flames and prolonged direct sunlight — PLA can soften at high temperatures.
- Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners and solvents, especially on a hand-painted finish.
- Handle fine projecting details with care.
- Materials: PLA. Hand-painted finishes also use acrylic paint and matt varnish.
- Due to the nature of 3D printing, minor layer lines and small variations in finish are normal and form part of the piece's character.
If anything isn't right
Every piece gets checked before it's packed. If something turns up damaged, or just isn't what you were hoping for, please send us a message — we're a two-person workshop and we would far rather hear from you and put it right.
