Description
The standard bookshelf gets a serious refresh with the Aimee étagère from Crosley Furniture. Pagoda styling provides unique visual flair, while metal and glass construction compliments any room without overwhelming it. Finished in an antique gold, the Aimee fits perfectly with any décor.

This is a nice unitI’ve been looking for a while for shelves to flank the dining room window but they had to have a small footprint. I finally found this unit. Hesitated a while because it’s an old house with uneven floors, and the Q & A was mixed when I asked about adjustable feet. But I took a chance because we’re pretty handy and could come up with some way to level if necessary, and frankly, I was tired of looking at the boxes of books and art that needed a home. Ordered two in gold. So glad I did! The feet *ARE* adjustable (vendor really should include that in the item description). They arrived in a reasonable time (within a week) considering their size and weight. They were easy to assemble (about 30-35 mins each, including unpacking, with two people). The one box was beat up during shipping, but the item is very well packaged as others reported, so no damage. Not sure what kind of styrofoam packing they use, but it DOES NOT stick to you or disintegrate when you unpack the pieces or break it into smaller pieces for disposal. Also as others reported, the stickers used to identify the pieces for assembly are a challenge to remove, but luckily, several of them were off the edge which made them much easier to remove. We were also able to assemble with some stickers towards the back where they cannot be seen. I suggest patience when removing any of the stickers. I plan to soak the stickers on the glass shelves with a slightly wet paper towel before removing the stickers and BEFORE placing them in the unit. Acetone nail polish remover helps remove the residual sticker glue on glass, but I DO NOT recommend that for the metal. The edge of the glass is beveled, a really nice feature that adds visual appeal. The gold is not a shiny see-your-reflection-in-it brassy gold. If you’re looking for shine, keep looking. It’s more of a matte gold with a tinge of brass or bronze depending on the light source. The pics on Amazon are fairly accurate on color on my screen. These units are far enough away from the matte gold coffee table in the living room so the color is a win. Overall a good deal and I recommend. They are sold on many other sites under the same or different name, but Amazon had the best price when I was ready to purchase.

Beautiful 😍I would give this product a 4.5 out of 5 stars.Pros: GREAT value for the cost, and it looks elegant and stylish in my little home office. (Note: my office is like 2/3 set up so it might look a little cluttered in the photos)I have a brass and glass desk I bought from a neighbor and wanted shelving to match. I love the brassy finish and the glass looks so fancy.Cons: one screw on the bottom most part of the shelving unit did not fit properly. Didn’t matter what piece I tried, the hole itself was slightly off. As a result, and you can see it in my photo, the unit is *slightly* wobbly and it leans to one side. It’s not extreme, butttttt I was disappointed that it didn’t fit together quite right. Once I put the glass shelves in place it wasn’t as wobbly but still not perfect.I do like the anti tipping device that was included with the shelving unit. It was easy to install and gives me more peace of mind as my daughter will be a toddler before I know it.Overall I would recommend this product, and depending on how the rest of my home office setup goes, I may buy another to match this to put on the other side of my desk. I think it’s a great value for the price, and it just adds this wonderful touch to my space 😊

Very nice looking!This etagere was the one I chose after looking at several options. I wanted something tall to add some height to the room, but I did not want anything too obtrusive. I liked that the shelves were glass, and the sides were all open and not closed in like a bookcase. It arrived well packaged and went together relatively easily. The open glass shelves really showcase the special items that are on them. I am glad I chose this one.

Great for plants!I bought this as a plant shelf, and it’s worked out great! It lets lots of light in, and the glass shelves are easy to wipe clean — I don’t have to worry about water spills or dirt ruining the shelf like I would with wood or something else. I specifically bought this etagere instead of similar options because this is the only one with TALL shelves — each shelf is 18″ tall, so it can hold taller plants! I’ve been very happy with the sturdiness so far, each shelf seems to be holding the pots with no problem (although I wouldn’t recommend putting a lot of heavy ceramic pots on it, and putting lighter things on higher shelves). It wobbles a little when I purposely shake it, so I would probably use the attached wall anchor if I had cats or kids. But the construction is very solid. It was also super easy to build — I’m only 5’3″, and I did it by myself in less than an hour.

Dream shelfHonest review, people. This shelf is AMAZING, I love it!My goal was to find a narrow and tall glass-shelved bibliothèque FOR my PLANTS. This is exactly it! And it’s the nicest and most affordable one I’ve found online. You can find this exact model in other marketplaces, obviously, but amazon offers the best price with quick delivery, from my searches.Easy assembly. The stickers are a little intense to remove, however. I ain’t complaining.
