What Is an Etagere?
An etagere is a freestanding shelving unit with open shelves, typically designed for displaying books, decorative objects, or plants. Unlike closed bookcases, etageres feature minimal or no backing, creating a lighter visual footprint and allowing light and sightlines to pass through the space.
