Stairs Column

The Stairs Column from Ethnicraft distances itself from static storage: perfectly aligned angles create shifting volume as you walk past. It is made in solid oak with a hardwax oil finish or brown-tainted, FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified teak with varnish.

Common Questions
What is the Stairs Column used for?
It is a vertical display rack — books, objects, and plants stagger up its angled shelves, turning a 17.5-inch floor footprint into 80 inches of display.
Should it be secured to the wall?
It stands freely, but for a tall, narrow tower we recommend an anti-tip anchor, especially on rugs or with children at home.
Oak or teak?
Oak is lighter in tone with a matte oiled surface; the teak version is brown-tainted, varnished, FSC-certified, and about 12 pounds lighter.
