Know before you buy
The open back means there is no solid panel behind the shelves, allowing your wall color to show through. This design is ideal for placing the bookcase against a wall, but keep in mind that items may slide off the back if not pushed flush against the wall.
Because this piece is handcrafted from solid wood using traditional joinery, the shelves are exceptionally sturdy. They are designed to hold standard book collections and heavy decor items without sagging.
Through-tenons are a hallmark of Mission-style craftsmanship where the horizontal shelf supports pass entirely through the vertical posts. This creates a stronger mechanical bond than standard screws or nails and serves as a visual detail that highlights the piece's authentic construction.
Yes, you can select from several wood species and stain options to coordinate with your existing decor. We recommend ordering a wood sample if you are trying to match a specific finish exactly, as wood grain and stain absorption vary by species.
This piece is handcrafted as a solid, permanent structure. It is delivered fully assembled, so you will not need to worry about complex hardware or structural stability upon arrival.
