Try that. West Elm has several that would give you this kind of look.

jules_787 Thank you!!

Manon Floreat I think it can work, but will take some effort to pull it off. For example, you could paint the chair rail the same color as the wall so that the railing "disappears". You could remove the chair rail. You could also make a design "statement" with it by framing the shelf with moulding that matches the chair rail - you'd have to remove the chair rail behind the shelf, though. A mirror behind it would be dramatic.

For a similar look, you could consider glass and chrome floating shelves pleasingly arranged above the railing.

karen paul interiors I have no problems with chrome and glass with a room sporting a chair rail. So, is your question about chrome and glass vs a more traditional feeling? Is it because the shelves on the unit may not fall in the right spot with regard to the chair rail? Frankly, I love any room that thinks outside the box. I am curious as to your thinking and your reluctance as well.
