This is such a beautiful piece. It's really the kind of shelf you build your room around instead of vice versa. The shelves are a lovely greyish-brown. They're thick and sturdy, with enough space between for pretty much anything you might put on a shelf.

It was a snap to put together, just 3 steps, 2 if you don't plan to anchor it to a wall. Even with anchoring, it only took about 15 minutes.
