As a result, the shelves are locked to the arms in both the depth direction of the bathroom counter. Therefore, the shelf board can be easily attached to and detached from the arm, and the shelf board can be supported by the arm in a stable state.

A regulating portion is formed at the upper end of the pillar portion so as to project toward the front side, and the regulating portion is in a state where the front side surface of the recess and the front side surface of the wall side locking portion are in contact with each other. It is preferable to contact the end of the shelf board on the wall side. According to such a configuration, when the shelf board is attached to the arm, the end portion of the shelf board on the wall side is regulated in a state where the front side surface of the recess and the front side of the wall side locking portion are in contact with each other. The portion abuts on the wall-side end of the shelf board. This makes it possible to suitably prevent the wall-side locking portion from coming off from the recess due to the load.

The front surface of the recess includes an inclined surface that inclines downward from the wall-side end of the upper surface of the arm toward the wall, and a vertical surface that extends vertically downward from the lower end of the inclined surface. It is good. According to such a configuration, when a load is applied to the shelf board in the direction of rotation toward the front side, the front side surface of the wall side locking portion of the shelf board is locked to the vertical surface. Therefore, it is possible to suitably prevent the wall-side locking portion from coming off from the recess when a force in the direction of rotation toward the front side is applied.
