Description
A canvas wall art, 120cm tall, in natural. At 90cm wide it is wider than a standard interior door. Wall art is the one purchase judged entirely on where it goes. Hang the centre at eye level rather than centring it on the wall, and give a single piece more empty wall around it than instinct suggests.
Natural sits with almost anything, which is the practical argument for it: it does not commit the room to a colour scheme the way a painted finish does. Pine is a softwood, so it marks more readily than oak or beech — and takes a paint or a wash far better, because the grain drinks it in. Marks in pine read as age rather than damage. Expanded polystyrene is used where a form needs to be large and weigh almost nothing. It gives the shape without the mass, which is what allows an oversized piece to hang or stand on a light fixing. Canvas is a plain, tightly woven cloth stiff enough to hold a shape without a frame. That structure is why a canvas basket stands up rather than slumping.
It hangs on a d-ring. D-rings will not self-level the way a single hook does, so the two fixings have to be at the same height. That is the whole difficulty, and a level solves it.
Measure the wall, then take two thirds of its width as the upper limit for a single piece. Above a sofa or a console, aim for roughly the width of the furniture beneath it.

What is it made of?
Pine, canvas and polystyrene. The full composition is in the specification table.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is not specified for a humid room, and a damp environment will show at the edges of the finish in time.
Will it look exactly like the photographs?
Close, but not identical. Pine varies from piece to piece, so grain, tone and marking differ.
