Tall arched bookcases and cabinets

Most tall models stand 66.7 to 70.9 inches and are about 30 to 32 inches wide, with adjustable shelves on many. The 70.9 inch arched storage cabinet comes in black, light gray, blue gray and green on a metal frame, and a matching bookcase comes in a light oak finish. A big and tall farmhouse cabinet adds 8 shelves rated to 33 lb each. Tall bookcases should be anchored to the wall, and most here call for a wall anchor.

Arched bookcase with doors and drawers

Arched storage cabinets with doors hide clutter below open shelves. A 31.6 inch model pairs 2 doors with 1 drawer, and a 63.2 inch double version has 4 doors and 2 drawers, both in black or white with shelves rated to 45 lb each. Closed storage suits a living room or dining room where games, linens or serving pieces need a home.

Narrow arch bookcase and short styles

For a small wall, a 17.8 inch wide arched bookcase stands 68 inches tall with 3 tiers, and 23.6 inch arched cabinets come in an oak finish with 3 shelves or in black with 4 shelves at 47.2 inches tall. A short 32.2 inch wide black bookcase stands 45.7 inches, low enough to sit under a window or behind a sofa.

Wood arched bookcase finishes

Most frames are MDF with painted or veneer finishes in black, white, oak and walnut tones, which wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. The 17.8 inch bookcase is listed as solid walnut, and a 66.7 inch black mid-century bookcase combines solid wood with MDF panels. Keep heavy books on lower shelves and lighter decor near the arch.

Frequently asked questions

How do you decorate a bookcase?
Decorate a bookcase by mixing books with a few objects, such as plants, framed photos, baskets and small sculptures, and leaving some open space on each shelf. Stack some books flat and stand others upright for rhythm. On an arched bookcase, place a taller piece under the arch to echo its curve.
How do you secure a bookcase to the wall?
Secure a bookcase to the wall with an anti-tip strap or L bracket screwed into the top of the bookcase and into a wall stud. Use a drywall anchor rated for the load when no stud lines up. Most tall arched bookcases here call for a wall anchor, which matters most in homes with children.
What is the best height for a bookcase?
The best height for a bookcase depends on where it goes: about 30 to 48 inches under a window or behind a sofa, and 70 to 84 inches for a full wall of storage. The arched bookcases here run from 45.7 inches for short styles to 70.9 inches for tall cabinets.
Are bookcases and bookshelves the same?
Bookcases and bookshelves are often used to mean the same thing, though a bookcase usually means a freestanding unit with sides, a back and several shelves, while a bookshelf can be a single shelf. The arched pieces here are freestanding bookcases and cabinets, some with doors and drawers.
How deep should a bookcase be?
A bookcase should be about 10 to 12 inches deep for most books, and 14 to 16 inches deep for large art books, baskets or decor. Shallower units save floor space in hallways, such as the 8 shelf farmhouse cabinet here at 10.6 inches deep. Measure your largest items before you choose.
What bookcases won't sag?
Bookcases with thick shelves, short spans and a back panel or center support resist sagging best. Shelves under about 32 inches wide hold weight well. Keep loads within the rating, such as 45 lb per shelf on the arched storage cabinets with doors here, and put heavy books on the lowest shelves.
