The 'Cascade' Leaning Dish Rack is a modern, functional piece designed for both beauty and stability. Its distinctive 5-degree lean allows it to rest securely against a kitchen backsplash, solving the tipping issue common in narrow racks. A two-tier system separates plates on top from bowls or glasses on the slatted lower shelf, lowering the center of gravity and maximizing utility. Construction relies on strong, repeatable dado and through-dowel joinery, making it ideal for batch production. Crafted from a water-resistant hardwood like maple, this design is built to last and offers a significant upgrade over typical, flimsy dish racks.
