Big Billy bookcaseAnonymous reviewerThis bookcase has taken the place of 7 smaller Billy bookcases and looks fabulous against the lime plastered wall. Even though it is so tall it is very sturdy and has been anchored to the wall with the supplied brackets. 5

Material

What is particleboard?

Particleboard is made from recycled wood and sawmill leftovers – so wood pieces with the wrong shade, woodchips and sawdust become a resource instead of possibly being discarded. We use boards for things like bookcases, bed frames, sofas and kitchen frames. To protect from wear and moisture, we apply varnish, veneer or foil that adds to the furniture's look.
