Hello!
My company started manufacturing and selling
30° museum brackets earlier this year, precisely to solve this kind of problem.
We've been using them for years -- they come in super handy when a reader rail or angled shelf is needed! We even keep a bunch in our roadkit because they're so useful when improvising solutions on-site. We decided we should market them to other museum professionals -- we make a range of styles, and can customize the colors. We are only making the 30° angle right now (60° if you flip it!), because it is an optimal angle for many applications -- 45° display shelves are pretty steep.
They're sturdy, easy to use, and can be mounted wherever you want to mount them!
I hope these help folks the way they've helped us!

Subject: Advice on angled shelf
Hello all,
I am working on an exhibition of miniature paintings on paper and would like to display them on an angled shelf that hangs 40-45 degrees off the wall. Has anyone purchased brackets for these before? I am having a hard time finding anything pre-fabricated that would work.
Thank you!
