Know before you buy
Yes, assembly is required for the Ryandale Bookcase. You will need to attach the frame and secure the glass shelves, so we recommend having a second person available to help with the process.
No, the shelves are fixed in place. The etagere design is structured for stability, so the five shelf levels are set at specific intervals to accommodate the frame.
The shelves are made of tempered glass designed for standard display use. While they are sturdy and suitable for books and decorative objects, they are not intended for extremely heavy loads like large encyclopedias or heavy equipment.
While it is designed as a freestanding unit, the open-back etagere style looks best when placed against a wall. If you plan to use it as a room divider, keep in mind that the back of the frame will be fully visible.
You can maintain the finish by wiping it down with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can damage the matte, antiqued finish.
