Mix in Texture With Metal Bookcases

Design a new mood in your living room or home office when you decorate with metal bookcases. These shelving units often feature mixed materials for a dimensional look that you'll love. Metal is strong and sturdy, so including it in rooms where you display your artworks or other treasures is always a smart idea. Load your shelves up with your favorite books, sculptures, baskets, picture frames and more. With fine metalwork framing, these bookshelves allow you to take your space towards modern, cottage or industrial styles. Metal bookcases are as versatile as you want them to be.

Styles of Metal Bookcases

Shopping for metal bookcases may reveal a broad array of choices for you and your family. At Pottery Barn, you can feel confident you're always choosing shelves that are constructed to exceptional standards. Each bookcase can last several years, if not longer, with proper placement and care.

  • For a modern look, check out shelving that features metal framing at the forefront of the design. Shelves themselves may be wood or glass, but let the metallic finish shine. An etagere is one upscale example of a shelving unit with metal to the front of the look.
  • Give your room an industrial feel with a sense of proportion. Darker metal with thicker dimensions looks inspired by old factories and found furnishings. Paired with hefty wood details, you get the design depth you need.
  • For a cottage feel, get inspired by metal shelf architecture like X details, wire-inspired metalwork with rounded edges or circular and oval hanging shelves.

Decorating With Fine Shelving

The use of shelves throughout your home provides storage and display space, but also gives you the chance to enjoy additional pieces of furniture. Coordinate your metal bookcases with coffee tables, hanging wall shelves, the metal details of sofas or armchairs and more.
