The Gwen Shelf, artisan-crafted at James & James, features a robust steel frame complemented by sleek solid hardwood shelving. Purpose-built to showcase your favorite books and unique decor accents, it epitomizes a blend of industrial resilience and sophisticated design, making a compelling statement in any room.

All James & James items are made to order, customized to the specifications you select.

Crafted from solid Knotty Alder Hardwood and clear-coated raw steel for lasting durability, our furniture is built for everyday use and ready to become your next heirloom. Every piece is hand-finished in the color of your choosing, then sealed with a polyurethane finish to further protect the surface. Surface area knots are filled for a smooth finish, while all other knots are left open and natural.

For added safety, we recommend securing the furniture to the wall, as all inherently top-heavy furniture can tip if misused. Please note that hardware for securing is not included.

Shown in knotty alder, this piece can also be crafted from white oak, maple, or black walnut upon request.

If you’re interested in exploring these options or would like pricing details, feel free to reach out to our dedicated sales team at care@carpenterjames.com or give us a call at 479-633-7557. We’d love to help bring your vision to life!
