SOLD OUT/OUT OF PRODUCTION
This rustic bookcase is designed to fill your living room with the feeling of 50 years of charm. Unlike a generic bookcase, this one has so much more character. What you see is a unique piece that embodies the life of the old. The old days of growing up before there were iPads, and before gadgets invaded our lives. This is a living treasure where books were repeatedly added and removed causing the paint to wear away in the days when books were made of paper and you couldn't have enough of them.
Over time, this piece would have traveled between farmhouses, sold at an auction, and then perhaps would have sat quietly for years in an old barn where the weather would have had its way of warping the wood, and causing the paint to peel and crackle at the bottom as the wood's thirst was quench by the moistened floor beneath its girth. Finally, after years of the shadows, someone rediscovered it and gave it a second chance to use its rustic charm.
This bookcase is about life, love, neglect, and a chance to love again. A chance to be there for you as you proudly display life's treasures, and fill its shelves with books with cracked spines and yellow, tattered pages. It wants to live on, and it wants to live with you.
The rear of this piece is quite pretty, so you can even use it to partially divide a room. There is simply no feature about this bookcase that you need to hide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I have to pay an import tax when receiving goods as your shop is in the UK?
You may need to pay import tax if your goods are valued at over $800 or more as my humble shop is located in the UK. For standing desks, the top and the electric frame will be coming in two shipments, so the overall total value of the good will be lower as the legs can enter the country duty-free.
ex: You order a complete standing desk (top and frame) and pay $1600. The legs will be valued at around $700, and the top will be valued at $900. Since shipping is included in the price for both items, I can lower the value of both items and allocate shipping fees to the top and leg frame. Now both items will have a lower value, and therefore you may not need to pay import tax.
How much weight can I put on the ladder shelves?
The shelf is robust and will hold a fair amount of weight, but not designed for extremely heavy objects. Books, bowls, potted plants, and things of that nature are all perfectly fine.
Please keep in mind I am referring above to a ladder shelf made from reclaimed pallet wood that leans against a wall. The solid bookcase made from steel and scaffolding I make can hold as much as you can throw at it.
Why is my stuff taking so long to ship?
A majority of the items are handmade and take a lot of effort. Using reclaimed material means time needs to be spent to fetch, dismantle, wash, and sand the material before I can even start a project. For hardwood projects, the wood is in a raw format which means we need to plane it so it's smooth, remove the bark, and sand, and apply several coats of oil to get it just right. If we're talking about resin desks...well, each piece of wood is unique and it takes time (72 hours or more) for the resin to set in between each pour. I don't want you to chase me, but rest assured my tiny team is doing the best we can to deliver top-quality products to you ASAP.
