Rustic Bookshelves

Rustic bookshelves add warm, open storage to a home office, den or cabin reading nook. These Fireside Lodge bookcases are handcrafted in the USA in Cedar Log, Hickory Log, Barnwood and Appalachian styles, in small, medium and large sizes, plus open cedar and hickory bookshelves with twig accents. Each shows the natural knots and grain of hand-peeled logs or reclaimed oak from 1800s tobacco barns.

How to Choose a Rustic Bookshelf

Size

Each line comes in small, medium and large. The Cedar Log Medium Bookshelf, for example, measures 40" W x 14" D x 72" H with five open shelves spaced 12 inches apart. Check each product page for exact sizes.

Matching your office

Bookshelves are made in the same lines as Fireside Lodge desks and file cabinets, so you can build a matching rustic home office.

Choose a wood and line

Cedar Log and Headwaters pieces use hand-peeled northern white cedar. Hickory Log uses bark-on hickory. Barnwood is reclaimed red oak salvaged from 1800s tobacco barns, and Appalachian pairs reclaimed oak tops with bark-on hickory logs. Voyageur is a simpler, cleaner-lined cedar design.
