Know before you buy
No, this piece arrives fully assembled and ready to use right out of the box.
No, the five shelves are fixed in place. The height between each shelf is 16.75 inches, which provides ample clearance for taller books or larger decorative items.
Yes, it is designed as a freestanding unit. However, given its height of 87 inches, we recommend using a wall anchor kit for added stability and safety, especially in homes with children or pets.
The shelves are crafted from wood with a natural oak veneer finish, providing the look and warmth of solid wood while maintaining a clean, modern profile.
While specific weight capacities per shelf are not provided, the sturdy iron frame construction is designed to support standard book collections and decorative objects safely.
The open-back design is versatile and allows the wall color behind the unit to show through, making it a great choice for floating in a room or placing against a wall. Just keep in mind that you will see the wall behind your items, so it works best against a clean or accent-colored surface.
