Know before you buy
The Lexington Small Bookcase is designed for wall-leaning, but it can be used as a freestanding piece if you purchase the optional matt black lacquered wood base.
The bookcase measures 49.2 inches wide by 15 inches deep and stands 71.7 inches tall.
To maintain the hide leather, dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or placing the unit in direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or fading.
Yes, the unit arrives unassembled. While the design offers freedom of composition, we recommend following the included instructions carefully to ensure the structural integrity of the metal frame.
The Lexington system is designed for a specific configuration, so the shelf positions are fixed to maintain the structural balance and aesthetic of the metal frame.
