A free-standing shelving system of the type comprises four uprights which support a plurality of rectangular shelves. Attached at each corner of each shelf 5 are respective pegs 12-15 which are shaped to co-operate with corresponding keyhole-shaped holes 16-19 in the upright 4. In order to allow the corner of each shelf to be offered up to the internal corner of the upright, and attached thereto without distortion of the components, the enlarged portions of holes 16-19 are displaced laterally away from the corner. The narrow portions of holes 16-19 are, however, positioned so as to tightly hold the shelf corner into the upright, thus providing a rigid joint. <IMAGE> |
