Materials

Pine, Reclaimed wood

Made to Order

Yes

The Mary is a rustic bookcase filled with charm and character. The piece is a beautiful and functional addition to any room. Each bookcase is handmade in our workshop and made from locally sourced reclaimed wood.

This piece will be hand crafted to order & can be built to your exact specifications. Depending on height required, this can come with one or two internal shelves please state your preference.

Pictures of the example pieces may slightly vary, as each piece of reclaimed wood is different and reacts differently to stains/oils. The time of the year also has an effect on the woods natural colour too. Our pieces are coated in Osmo Poly oil then second coated in clear oil for protection.

Unsure on the finish you would like? We offer sample blocks to purchase here; https://www.etsy.com/listing/813024934/samples-reclaimed-wood-sample-blocks

Standard depth is 22cm but we can make this custom to your specifications, just get in touch!

Delivery will be a 48hr (working day) courier from dispatch. If you require a quicker or set day delivery then please get in contact

Our items are made from reclaimed pine timber so will feature all the characteristics of its' previous life such as knots, cuts, cracks, scrapes & indentations. This adds a level of individuality & character & means that no two pieces will ever be the same

As the reclaimed timber adjusts to the conditions in your home, over time there may be slight movement in the wood such as shrinkage between planks, as well as small cracks opening and closing depending on the environment.

All completion dates given are ESTIMATES ONLY, as we are a small team delays can sometimes happen.

Multiple pieces ordered simultaneously will require more time to build.
