my glass is displayed in a 'U' shape in my office.  I just use a wall bracket system and plate glass shelves.  The shelves are 8" from front-to-back, so I am not tempted to put pieces on display that will block a piece behind it.  This is the main wall and then there is glass to the left and right of it that covers another 5 ft. for the rest of the 'U' shape.  The majority of my collection is uranium/uranglas/vaseline/primrose pearline (depending on what you call it in your location).

MFI office shelving, bolted to the struts inside the walls, with extra shelves built up at the back, to give a stepped effect. Lighting not yet sorted.

Ancient pic, the shelves got a LOT more crowded. Am currently in the process of packing up stuff I'm not so fond of, and hoping to rearrange a different display.

 :hiclp: absolutely brilliant displays everyone - especially breathtaking displays by Dave and Sue!!!! wow

I'm afraid our glass shelving is strictly utilitarian - no room for pretty displays unfortunately - two walls of our dining room have industrial shelves from ceiling to floor.  Whilst we've got everything ordered by maker/country everything sits pretty much cheek to jowl.

well, I wasn't intending to but if you want I will - although to be honest it's a bit embarrassing compared to the amazing displays shown so far!  I did a year or so ago post some photos of my then, disorganised and untidy dining/stock room, thankfully it's all been tidied and reorganised since then.

My glass seems to be all over the house, often mixed with other non-glassy displays, but here's the latest picture of my 'Triffid' (mainly) collection.
