Abstracta is a marriage of metal, wood and glass to make an eco-friendly presentation. Choose from stock units or let us help you design fixtures tailored to your specific needs. Abstracta Shipping The standard order is shipped unassembled and includes instructions. Full or partial assemblies can be shipped at additional cost. Stock Units and Modified Stock Units Stock designs are available in a variety of finishes and come with or without glass. Other shelving options such as wood, mirrored glass and acrylic can be custom ordered. The design of any stock unit can easily be modified to meet your display or furniture needs. All designs can also be changed to allow for graphics. Calibrated Tubes and Connectors We “calibrate” all stock and custom lengths of our 13mm tubing to ensure dependable and accurate joining with the Abstracta 13mm connectors. All of the most popular connectors have been redesigned utilizing “TwentyFirst Century” technology and casting procedures for consistency and reliability. For the best possible results, use only genuine Abstracta calibrated tubing with your Abstracta connectors.
