Tiered Montessori Bookshelf

Tiered Montessori Bookshelf$320.00

The Tiered Montessori Bookshelf is thoughtfully designed to display book covers outward, making it easy for children of all ages to independently choose what they want to read. By putting covers front and center, this bookshelf supports early independence and helps foster a lasting love of books and literacy.

The forward facing design makes books accessible even for infants and toddlers, allowing them to see, reach, and select their own books safely. Younger children naturally gravitate toward the lower tiers, while older children continue to use the full height of the shelf as their reading interests and habits grow.

Handcrafted in our wood shop from premium Baltic birch wood, the bookshelf features four gently tiered shelves. Each shelf includes a low front lip that keeps books securely in place while still allowing clear visibility of covers. The proportions are carefully considered to support independence while maintaining a clean, uncluttered look.

Book capacity varies depending on size and arrangement. When single stacking large picture books, the shelf holds approximately 12 books. When filled with smaller books and layered more densely, it can hold roughly 40 to 50 books.

The Tiered Montessori Bookshelf fits naturally into bedrooms, playrooms, or learning spaces and continues to serve children well as they grow. It pairs well with the Tiered Toy Shelf to create a cohesive, child centered storage and reading area.

Tiered Montessori Bookshelf FAQs

See all FAQs

What age is the Tiered Montessori Bookshelf for?

The Montessori Bookshelf is suitable for all ages. The forward-facing display makes it easy for infants and toddlers to see and choose their own books, which supports early independence and literacy development.

Younger children use the lower tiers to access books safely, while older children continue to enjoy the full height of the shelf as their interests and reading habits grow.

How many books does the Bookshelf hold?

It depends on the size of the books and whether you stack any in front of each other. If you’re single-stacking large picture books, it holds about 12. If you’re filling it all the way up with smaller books it can hold about 40-50.

When can I expect my order to arrive?

Shipping estimates are available on each product page. These indicate when the item will be shipped from our woodshop in Los Angeles. Domestic orders are shipped via UPS Ground, and transit may take up to 5-7 business days depending on your location. Please note that our team does not operate on weekends and federal holidays. Orders placed on these days will be shipped on the next business day.

Is assembly easy? Tools? How do I assemble?

Our furniture requires minimal assembly, needing only an Allen key, which we provide along with online instructions. If your order includes over 20 screws, we'll also include hex drill bits to make assembly quicker. An electric drill could be useful but isn't necessary. You can find all our assembly instructions here.

How should I clean for my RAD furniture?

To clean your furniture, use a non-toxic mixture of vinegar and warm water. Spray the surface and immediately wipe it dry with a clean cloth. Never soak or immerse wooden furniture in water as it can cause the wood to swell and deform.

Can I use my furniture outside?

You can use your furniture outdoors but don't leave it outside for longer than necessary, as it's not designed to withstand extended exposure to outdoor elements. After use, wipe down the surface with a dry cloth. Leaving your furniture outside may void your warranty.

What is your policy on returns and exchanges?

We accept returns within 30 days of delivery for unused products in their original packaging. If you receive a damaged or defective item, contact our support team within 7 days of delivery for an exchange or replacement. Please note, customized or assembled items are non-returnable.
