Hi Jennifer. They look like they might be some sort of decorative molding from the top of a window or maybe a fireplace. I would use them as shelves. What a great find!
Ooh what a find! as they are expensive to buy. Yes, these pieces can be used anywhere you choose for a decor feature, but are predominately used as free-floating shelves (do not take up any floor space), fireplace mantles, capitals over doorways, picture frames, and mirrors. I see that they have the cutouts in the back for the hidden mounting hardware. As they are heavy, they will require installation on the wall studs, or mounted with appropriate sized toggle bolts.
I agree on molding,or a very slim shelf
Great find! Paint, hang, and display items...photos, trinkets, etc. I've got two shelves on my kitchen, one over a toilet, one in my sunroom, and one in the mud room. Great real estate for many purposes.
I have some very similar and luckily they were almost exact same size as my doors. So I hung them above bedroom and bathroom doors and hung a framed picture (I painted frames to match the shelf) on the wall with about 2 inches from the bottom of frame to shelf and added all kinds of little knick knack decorations. I love the way they dress up the doors.
I also got super lucky and found a very long one at a garage sale for aBUCK!!! I hung it in my bathroom under the mirror. Its great for holding decorative qtip holder, candles, makeup holders.. Pretty much anything you want near the sink but want off the counter top.
I would add additional plank wood then repaint - add coat hooks to provide hallway mudroom or foyer storage for hats coats and dog leashes.
I've a small kitchen. A spice display, those plastic jars lite weight, bottom size less 1.5 inch.
They are a great find. I would turn one upside down and leave the other right side down. Then use them as a great way to have a frame for large items such as weavings or art deco prints. You could simply hang them above and below for a non-frame frame.
I would mount them as a set and place a pair of art prints on them.
