A low, open shelf for books, baskets and everyday play materials.

A low shelf can change how a room works. Books, baskets and toys become visible without being piled on the floor.

Choose 80 cm or 120 cm, with or without legs, depending on your space and how much storage you need.
Why we love it

Inspired by Maria Montessori's educational philosophy, this shelf is essential for keeping toys and books visible, accessible, and organized. It promotes children's independence and autonomy by placing everything within their reach.

At Child's Height

At 60cm height (or 70cm with legs), this shelf is designed so children can easily access their toys and books without adult help. The 3 shelves spaced approximately 27 cm apart allow organizing objects of different sizes.

Quality Wood

Made from first-quality natural pine wood, according to supplier information.

The neutral color of pine wood fits perfectly into any environment, following Montessori principles of calm and organized spaces.

Two Size Options

Available in two lengths to adapt to available space:

  • 90cm: Ideal for smaller rooms or specific corners
  • 120cm: Greater storage capacity for larger toy or book collections

With or Without Legs

You can choose the shelf with or without legs:

  • Without legs: Sits directly on floor, more stable
  • With legs (adds 10cm height): Makes cleaning underneath easier and creates a lighter visual feel

Solid and Safe Construction

Made from first-quality solid pine wood. Screws are recessed to prevent small pieces from getting stuck during play. For models with legs, wall brackets are included for optional wall mounting for extra safety.

Simple Assembly

Requires assembly but includes all detailed instructions and necessary materials. The process is straightforward and can be completed quickly.
