Five-Tier Bookshelf with Looped Oval Cutouts

Five open tiers sit inside a frame of rounded walnut loops. Instead of flat sides, the uprights swell and pinch, leaving oval holes cut clean through the timber so light and wall colour show behind. The shelves themselves stay level and deep enough for a row of hardbacks with a pot standing beside them. The finish is a mid walnut brown with dark ripples running up the loops.

Everything here is shaped from solid hardwood. The loops are carved from thick blocks and smoothed by hand, which is why the curves keep their weight rather than looking pressed. We start building once your order is placed, so the grain flowing around your cutouts belongs to your shelf alone. Stage photos come to you before the work moves on.

The bookshelf travels in parts, each carved section boxed separately so the loops arrive intact and the crate stays compact enough to keep shipping affordable. Printed instructions for putting it together are packed inside, and our team can walk you through anything by email. Free worldwide delivery on every order, with 30 days to return it.
