Riland Natural Etagere

This unit is an excellent space-saving solution for urban living. With a narrow depth of 14 inches and a height of 75 inches, it maximizes vertical storage without requiring a large floor footprint. Its open design and tapered metal legs allow you to see more of the floor and wall, which helps a smaller room or narrow home office feel more expansive and less cluttered.

While a standard bookcase often has a closed back and sides, this mid-century modern etagere features an open-back, cubist-inspired design. The "floating" square and rectangular compartments create a lighter, more airy visual profile that doesn't overwhelm a room. This open construction makes it an ideal choice for showcasing decorative items and art alongside books, blending functional storage with a curated gallery feel.

Absolutely. Because of its finished, open-back design and cubist layout, this unit works beautifully as a functional room divider in studio apartments or open-concept living areas. It effectively defines separate zones—such as separating a workspace from a living area—while still allowing natural light and sightlines to pass through the room, maintaining a spacious and interconnected feel.

This etagere is crafted from acacia wood, a material highly prized for its exceptional density and natural hardness. Unlike bookcases made from particle board, acacia wood is significantly more resistant to sagging under the weight of heavy book collections. The wood’s tight grain ensures long-term stability, while the natural sandstone finish highlights unique grain patterns, providing an authoritative blend of durability and high-end aesthetic for your home office.

Based on our expertise in wood care, we recommend dusting this acacia wood piece regularly with a soft, dry cloth. To protect the natural sandstone finish, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or wax-based polishes that can dull the surface over time. For minor spills, immediately blot with a damp cloth and follow with a dry one to prevent moisture from affecting the wood, ensuring the etagere remains a centerpiece in your home.

Safety is paramount for any furniture piece standing 75 inches tall. While this etagere is built for stability with its angled metal legs, we strongly recommend using anti-tip hardware to secure it to a wall stud. This is a critical safety measure, especially for homes with children or pets, to prevent accidental tipping when the seven shelves are fully loaded with books and decor.
