Walnut has a warmth that is hard to replicate. The Cleo walnut range captures that through solid wood shelves in a rich walnut finish — the grain catches light differently from every angle, and the depth of tone changes depending on what it sits beside. Paired with matte black, brushed gold or brushed stainless steel frames, each piece feels finished rather than purely functional. A lip detail runs along the edge of each shelf, adding definition to the profile.
Available in 3-tier and 5-tier configurations. The 3-tier comes in 90cm and 120cm widths at 98cm tall — a format that works well in bedrooms, home offices and dining rooms where you want presence without height. The 5-tier is 100cm wide and 165cm tall, built for living rooms and feature walls where storage and display need to pull equal weight. Each shelf holds up to 15kg distributed weight.
All pieces arrive flat-packed with pre-drilled components and include adjustable foot levellers for uneven floors. Assembly requires no specialist tools — most customers are done in under an hour. In-stock items ship within 2–7 business days to metro and regional areas across Australia.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What are the shelves made from? +
A: Solid manufactured wood shelves with a walnut veneer finish. Each shelf features a lip detail along the edge. Frames are powder-coated steel (black or gold) or brushed stainless steel.
Q2: What frame colours pair well with walnut? +
A: All three work well, but the choice changes the feel. Black creates a bold, graphic contrast — good for contemporary rooms. Gold reads warmer and more luxurious — suits mid-century spaces. Brushed stainless steel gives a cooler, more refined result that works in Japandi and Scandi-leaning rooms.
Q3: What interior styles suit walnut bookcases? +
A: Mid-century modern is the natural match — walnut is the defining timber of the style. Contemporary, earthy and Japandi interiors also work well. Walnut sits less naturally in stark white Scandi spaces where an ash finish would be the better choice.
Q4: What sizes are available? +
A: 3-tier in 90cm and 120cm widths (both 98cm tall), and 5-tier at 100cm wide by 165cm tall. All are 38.8cm deep.
Q5: How much weight can each shelf hold? +
A: Each shelf holds up to 15kg distributed weight. Keep heavier items toward the lower shelves for best stability.
Q6: Can walnut bookcases be paired with ash in the same room? +
A: Yes — walnut and ash from the Cleo range share the same frame proportions and finish options, so mixing them works well as long as you keep the frame colour consistent across both.
Q7: Do the feet adjust for uneven floors? +
A: Yes — adjustable foot levellers are included with every unit, ensuring the bookcase sits flush and stable on uneven or slightly sloped floors.
