Faceby Low Shelving Unit 100 cm – White Marble Shelves with Gold Metal Frame

Faceby Low Bookcase 100 cm with White Marble Shelves

The Faceby low bookcase is a refined display piece combining pale marble shelves with a slender metal frame in a warm gold finish. Its clean architectural form has been designed to showcase the beauty of the materials while providing an elegant surface for books, art objects, ceramics and carefully curated accessories.

Measuring 100 cm wide, 30 cm deep and 70 cm high, the bookcase has low, well-balanced proportions that sit comfortably within a living room, dining room, bedroom, study or entrance hall. It may be used as a compact bookcase, an open console or a decorative display unit positioned beneath artwork, a mirror or a wall-mounted feature.

The combination of white marble and gold gives Faceby a sophisticated, timeless character. The pale shelves introduce lightness, while the metallic frame adds a subtle jewellery-like accent. It is especially well suited to modern classic, glamorous, Art Deco, New York-inspired and contemporary interiors.

Elegant low bookcase for the living room

A low bookcase for the living room is ideal where a full-height shelving unit would feel too dominant or conceal a decorative wall. Faceby offers two generous display surfaces: the upper shelf and the lower marble shelf.

The top may be styled with a table lamp, sculptural ornament, vase, candlesticks or framed photographs. The lower shelf is suitable for coffee-table books, decorative boxes, baskets and larger accessories.

Its open construction helps preserve a sense of space and prevents the piece from appearing visually heavy. This makes Faceby particularly effective in interiors where furniture should frame decorative objects without overpowering them.

Natural marble shelves with individual veining

The top and lower shelf are made from marble. As a natural material, the stone may display subtle veining, tonal variation and individual markings that give each piece its own character.

The pale surface creates an elegant contrast against the gold metal frame and reflects both natural and artificial light beautifully. The understated stone pattern adds depth without distracting from the clean proportions of the design.

Variations in colour, veining and natural markings are characteristic of genuine stone and should not be considered imperfections. These differences contribute to the individuality of every Faceby bookcase.

Gold metal frame with an open architectural form

The slim geometric frame is made from metal and finished in a warm gold tone. Its clean lines create a structured surround for the pale marble surfaces and give the piece a refined, contemporary appearance.

The open base allows the floor or rug beneath to remain visible, helping the furniture feel lighter within the room. This makes the bookcase suitable for both generous interiors and smaller spaces where maintaining a sense of openness is important.

The gold finish can be coordinated with lighting, mirror frames, furniture handles and occasional tables in similar tones. It also works beautifully with black, dark timber, cream upholstery, glass and other natural stone finishes.

Low marble bookcase for books and decorative objects

Faceby can be used as a compact bookcase for books and display pieces, particularly in a living room, study or bedroom. The lower shelf offers a practical place for art books, interior-design volumes and decorative editions.

Books can be arranged both vertically and horizontally to create a more layered composition. A stack of large books may also provide a base for a small sculpture, decorative box or stone object.

For a more considered result, leave some empty space between the accessories. The marble shelves and gold frame are an important part of the design and should remain visible rather than being completely concealed.

Low console for an entrance hall or dining room

At 70 cm high, Faceby can also be used as a low open console table. In an entrance hall, it provides an elegant surface for a lamp, tray, flowers or decorative accessories while leaving room above for a large mirror or artwork.

In a dining room, it can function as an open display unit. The upper shelf may hold lamps, vases or seasonal decorations, while the lower shelf can be used for trays, serving bowls and books.

The piece also works well in a home office, where it offers storage for books and collected objects without introducing the visual weight of traditional office cabinetry.

Which interiors suit the Faceby low bookcase?

Faceby complements modern classic, glamorous, Art Deco, New York-inspired, contemporary and eclectic interiors. The combination of marble and gold allows it to work with both elegant upholstered furniture and more streamlined modern pieces.

In a glamorous living room, pair it with velvet seating, mirrored accessories and decorative lighting. In a modern classic scheme, it sits beautifully against wall mouldings, pale walls and refined architectural details.

Within a contemporary interior, the piece can provide a luxurious contrast against matt finishes, simple furniture and neutral textiles. The white marble lightens the room, while the gold frame adds warmth.

How to style the Faceby low bookcase

Create an asymmetrical arrangement on the top using a tall lamp or vase, a small stack of books and one sculptural object. This creates a more natural, collected look while preserving the elegant character of the furniture.

The lower shelf may be styled with larger books, decorative boxes or ceramic pieces. Vary the height and texture of the objects while keeping the colour palette cohesive.

A large round mirror, abstract artwork or a pair of framed prints will work well above the bookcase. When selecting wall décor, consider the 100 cm width of the furniture to maintain balanced proportions.

How to care for the marble shelves

Wipe the marble surfaces regularly with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Remove spills immediately, particularly if they are acidic or strongly coloured.

Use coasters beneath drinks, vases and damp decorative objects. Do not use bleach, acidic cleaners, abrasive products or rough sponges.

Dust the metal frame with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid aggressive metal polishes that may alter the intended gold finish.

Place heavier objects carefully and distribute their weight evenly across the shelves. Decorative items should not be dragged across the marble, as this may cause scratching.
