A Tree for the Library
The carving mimics real bark and roots, so the trunk has texture you will want to touch. Above it, branches spread in an uneven pattern that gives each shelf its own character. Filled with books, baskets and trailing greenery, the piece feels almost like an indoor forest.
Craftsmanship
Artisans carve the full structure from premium hardwood, then polish it to deepen the tone and add warmth. Natural grain, knots and color shifts are part of every piece, so yours will be unique. Because of its height and width, plan its spot carefully and keep it away from heating vents.
Frequently asked questions
How much wall space does it need?
Standard sizes run 75 to 80 inches wide and 80 to 85 inches tall, so allow a full wall section with clearance for the ceiling. A custom size is also available.
What can I display on the shelves?
Books, ceramics, framed art, woven baskets and potted plants all work well on the 8-inch-deep shelves.
How long does delivery take?
Each piece is made to order. Cutting and carving take 7-10 days, you approve photos of your piece, finishing takes about 7 more days, and delivery adds 3-7 business days, so most orders arrive in about 3-4 weeks.
Will every piece look exactly like the photos?
The shape, size and finish match your selection, but solid wood has natural variations in grain, knots and tone, so no two pieces are identical. You see photos of your own piece before it is finished.

Full-grain and exotic leathers: wipe dust with a dry cloth, condition every few months, and let wet boots dry away from direct heat. Exotic skins (python, ostrich, alligator) want a conditioner made for exotics — never saddle soap. Use a boot tree or stuff with paper to hold the shape.
