Available in tall and wide sizes, each bookshelf includes bookend paddles that can be arranged where they’re needed, or removed completely to create uninterrupted shelves. The Market Shelves include leather details that not only keep the shelves in place, but also add visual texture to the piece.

Each mirror includes an iron hand-hammered screw for mounting the mirror on a wall, adding an additional rustic detail to the piece.
