The cabinet has several shelves that can be placed at different heights. This allows you to adjust the layout to what you want to store, such as books, folders, tableware, ceramics, baskets or decorative objects.
At the front, the cabinet has two handles and a metal bar. These details refer to the original library bookcases, where the bar was used to help reach the higher shelves.

Material
The cabinet is made from solid metal and wooden shelves. The metal frame provides strength and gives the cabinet its industrial look. The wooden shelves add warmth and make the cabinet suitable for both books and decorative items.
Because wood is a natural material, colour differences, grain patterns and small imperfections may be visible. The metal may also show slight differences in finish. These details are part of the design and suit the look of an old library or archive cabinet.
Maintenance
Wipe the cabinet with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use harsh cleaning products and do not leave moisture on the wood or metal for too long.
Use a coaster or protective mat under plant pots and vases to help prevent moisture marks on the wooden shelves. After assembly, check that the cabinet stands firmly and place heavier items preferably on the lower shelves.
