Do you want a freestanding shelving unit to display photos, books or other home decor items?
This double ladder bookshelf features a handcrafted slanted wood frame that provides unique style and function at the same time.
Unique Design Gives this Bookshelf Style, Strength & More Function:
I think that the minimalistic angled design gives this piece a sophisticated, modern look and make it look more expensive.
In addition, this unconventional open display case looks more like a work of art than a bookcase.
Note: Due to its modern artistic look, you don’t need to fill up the shelves to create a stylish display area. In fact, I think the bright open shelves provide the ideal backdrop for a nice arrangement of photos.
I also like the fact that you can easily move this ladder bookshelf around. In other words, you don’t have to secure it to a wall. The two ladders combined with the angled configuration give this piece a really sturdy structure.
The open shelf design contributes to spacious feeling of this bookcase. Therefore, this furnishing works well in small spaces or large because it doesn’t feel like it takes up any space.
In addition, these open shelves make cleaning much easier, whether you wipe them down or dust them. Plus, the light-colored finish does a great job at hiding dust. =)
Note: By the way, I think this shelving unit can double as a side table if positioned by a sofa or chair. For example, check out the photo at the top of this page. You can see that the height works perfectly for setting a drink.
Handcrafted Wood Gives this Freestanding Bookshelf a Distinct Look:
For an affordable étagère bookcase, this unit has a surprisingly unique handcrafted look.
For example, the acacia wood gives it an exotic feel due to the variations in knots and color. In other words, each piece has its own unique artistic appearance.
At the same time, acacia wood is known for its strength and durability. Therefore, you can count on this solid hardwood frame holding up to everyday wear and tear.
How to Use this Etagère Bookcase in Your Front Entry:
Due to its sleek design, I think this étagère makes a convenient storage area in a front entry. For example, it provides an easy spot to drop your keys, phones, sunglasses, purses, hats, etc..
The shelf dimensions offer the perfect place to store shoes as well. However, since the shelves have a light finish, I’d get baskets that slide in and out for shoe storage.
I particularly like the look of wicker seagrass or hyacinth baskets since they follow that natural artisan look. Plus, they are durable and hide dirt well.
