Bookshelves

Why choose solid wood bookshelves from Myseat.sg

From a tidy reading nook to a full home library wall, our bookshelves are designed to fit beautifully and work hard. Explore open-shelf styles, dust-protecting Glass Door Bookshelves, and space-saving Wall Bookshelves—all available in custom sizes.

• Affordable quality: Built-to-order solid wood at approachable prices, sized for real homes.
• Health-conscious by design: At Myseat.sg, we craft our bookshelves to be formaldehyde‑free and non-toxic, using solid wood, water‑based glues, and natural wood-wax finishes.
• Made for your space: Custom width, height, depth, and shelf spacing so everything—from paperbacks to vinyl and files—has a place.
• Durable, repairable, timeless: Solid wood ages gracefully and can be refreshed over time, extending the life of your furniture.
• Sustainably minded: We prioritise responsibly sourced wood so you can furnish thoughtfully.

How to choose the right bookshelf

• Start with your wall: Measure width, ceiling height, and skirting/plug locations. For tight passages, consider slimmer depths or Wall Bookshelves.
• Pick the format: Open shelves for display and easy reach; Glass Door Bookshelves to minimise dust and protect collectibles; wall‑mounted units to keep floors clear.
• Plan what you’ll store: Tall art books and files need taller, adjustable shelves; novels and décor thrive on tighter spacing. Add drawers for small items or media.
• Choose your wood tone: Light woods brighten compact rooms; mid‑tone grains add warmth; a darker premium tone creates a focal point.
• Think safety and maintenance: Anchor tall units; place away from intense direct sunlight and AC vents; allow for door swing if adding glass doors.
