Details
A real page turner
Book storage is difficult in small spaces. With a small footprint, and discreet frame, Story Bookcase was designed to make the most of your space and show off books and other collectibles. “We simply want to create things people won’t get rid of,” says Story designer Chen-Yen. In creating the Story Bookcase (2017), they brought a new twist to vertical book storage. Story allows you to shift and rotate the shelves to suit your space's needs. Made in Taiwan.
Be creative with your story.
The Story Bookcase and the Story Planter are built on the same stem. If you purchase both a bookcase and a planter, you can mix and match shelves and bowls to create literary gardens and libraries that grow. Simple assembly required; ships in multiple boxes for easy handling.

Great design but quality control on materials please
I ordered this book shelf expecting it to be up and used with no headache and in a weird turn of events it's still not assembled..
When shipped I put it all together only for one of the holes in the metal rod to not be threaded. waited 2 weeks for replacement..

looks great, had some issues
First off, my book case arrived without the center pole. A call to customer service and I had a replacement within a week, even during Covid. Then, I had issues during assembly because the top and bottom of the pole were mislabeled. (Trust me, it matters.) Once I finally got it assembled, it looks great. Last point -- it is pretty stable but the addition of a washer with the base screw would probably eliminate the little bit of wobble.

Fill it up ^|
I’m trying to think of an excuse to get the tomato. Two of my grandchildren each have a black, I went for the tall white in small bedroom. Love it. The 7 lbs limit is not a problem; I was pleased smaller art books sit well back on shelf, not sticking out or tipping. Librarians are always figuring in horizontal shelf footage how much is needed for expanding collections, this has such a small footprint for its capacity.
