A bookcase is a piece of furniture designed to store books and other items. It typically features shelves that can hold various sizes of books, making it a practical addition to homes, libraries, and offices. Bookcases can be made from different materials, such as wood, metal, or glass, and come in various styles to match different interior designs. In addition to books, a bookcase can also display decorative items, such as photo frames, plants, or art pieces. Some bookcases are built into walls, while others are freestanding. They can vary in height, width, and number of shelves, providing flexibility for organizing and showcasing collections.
