Tall Narrow Shelving Unit – 90 cm Solid Wood Bookcase

A three-shelf handmade unit for narrow alcoves, hallways and compact rooms.

This tall narrow shelving unit adds useful vertical storage where a standard bookcase would project too far into the room. At 90 cm high and 50 cm wide, its three open shelves suit books, baskets, plants and display pieces in compact living areas.

This product is handmade from real solid pine, not MDF, chipboard or a printed wood-effect panel. Natural grain, knots and small tone variations remain visible, so each finished piece is individual. It is made to order rather than pulled from mass-produced warehouse stock, allowing the selected dimensions and finish to be prepared for the order.

Why Customers Choose This Product

• Three levels organise more items without a large floor footprint.

Place the unit on a flat, level floor with heavier items on the lowest shelf. The 19.5 cm depth provides a broader footprint than the 14.5 cm version. Tall furniture can be pulled or tipped, so assess your household and wall type and use a suitable anti-tip restraint where appropriate; obtain professional advice if unsure. No assembly required.

Solid Pine Wood

This product is handmade from real solid pine, not MDF, chipboard or a printed wood-effect panel. Natural grain, knots and small tone variations remain visible, so each finished piece is individual.

Choose Natural (unwaxed), Oak, Dark Oak, Mahogany, Walnut, Jacobean, Slate Grey or Silver Grey.

Waxed finishes add colour and everyday surface protection; wipe spills promptly. Due to the natural characteristics of wood, tones may vary slightly from piece to piece.
