Product Description
Every shelving piece of the Oppen line has an open back. Paying homage to some of the best Scandinavian furniture designs, this piece has a clean and unfussy look to it. The thick solid wood shelves provide extra support but also match the substantial frame on the rest of the piece. The open back allows greater flexibility in positioning the piece in your home. It can be placed against a wall but it also can be centered in a room too.
Please note the materials in our photos on this website may look slightly different from the actual wood used in the final product.
Since we use thick solid wood pieces to construct these bookshelves, variations in the wood color are to expected. Before finalizing your purchase, we strongly suggest ordering some real wood samples using our sample ordering page.

I prefer open back bookcases, especially in a small room. Works beautifully with heavier items and looks beautiful too.
Taylor Lange –
The thick shelves are perfect! I searched forever to find a bookshelf that can hold large books and other collectibles without the shelves sagging. Very pretty in cherry wood!
Andy Biggs –
I love this bookcase! Completely transformed our room. Being open on the back makes it feel less imposing. This bookcase was a great option as I could choose the exact size and not break the bank. It feels very very sturdy. Worth the wait!
Brice Daoud –
Bookcases are perfect with a great mixture of design and solid construction. Cherry to go with black desk and cherry floors. Now a very elegant looking study
Johanna E. –
Feel pretty solid, heavy, the shelves are easy install and reposition
Carol Cattaneo –
Perfect walnut color for what I needed in the family room. Looks airy and modern without the back. Definitely well made and strong. I can’t get over how heavy each of the shelves are. Since we have a vaulted ceiling in the room I added 8 inches to the overall height to increase our storage space. They were delivered and the man who helped out was wonderful and even spent extra time helping my husband mount it to the wall with the anti-tipping kit. Thank you!
