Know before you buy
No, this piece is designed for indoor use only. The cherry veneered MDF construction is not weather-resistant and should be kept in a climate-controlled environment to preserve the finish.
The wall element comes equipped with a pre-installed sawtooth hanger on the back. You will only need a standard nail or wall hook to secure it in a vertical orientation.
The piece is crafted from cherry veneered MDF, which provides the aesthetic warmth and grain of natural cherry wood while ensuring structural stability and resistance to warping over time.
The design is intended to be displayed vertically to honor the original architectural intent of the Dana-Thomas House art glass. The included mounting hardware is positioned specifically for vertical installation.
The piece is lightweight, making it easy to hang on most standard drywall surfaces without the need for heavy-duty anchors or specialized mounting hardware.
