Narrow Wooden Bookcase – Handmade Slim Solid Wood Shelving Unit

This handcrafted narrow wooden bookcase is designed for homes where space is at a premium but style still matters. With its slim profile and four practical shelves, it’s ideal for storing books, displaying décor, or organising everyday items in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways or home offices.

Made to order in our workshop, this slim shelving unit combines clean lines, solid construction and custom finishes, making it a versatile piece that works beautifully as a bookcase, display shelf or compact storage unit.

Crafted from kiln-dried Scandinavian redwood, chosen for its strength, stability, and long-lasting quality. The wood is fully dried and planed on all four sides, giving a smooth, well-finished feel while keeping the natural look and texture of real timber.

Kiln drying helps remove excess moisture, which greatly reduces the risk of movement, warping, or cracking over time. This means the unit stays solid and dependable and is far more stable than furniture made from reclaimed or untreated construction wood.

Each piece is carefully sanded to create a clean, natural finish that’s pleasant to the touch. As with all solid wood furniture, you may see knots, grain patterns, or small natural splits. These are not flaws but part of the wood’s natural character, making every piece unique.

• Width: 50 cm
