Is the Ryandale bookcase solid wood?

No. The frame is sand-cast aluminum with an antiqued brass-tone finish, and the shelves are clear glass. The metal-and-glass build is what gives it the open, airy look.

How much weight can the glass shelves hold?

Ashley does not publish a per-shelf weight rating for this piece. Glass shelves are best for books, plants and decor rather than heavy equipment; distribute weight evenly and avoid dropping hard objects on them.

Does it come assembled?

No, assembly is required and tools are not provided. Plan on a hex key or screwdriver set and a second person, since the unit weighs about 72 lb.

What are the exact dimensions?

It measures 32.25 inches wide, 73 inches tall and 14.75 inches deep. Check your ceiling and doorway clearance before ordering, since it is tall and freestanding.

Is $460.33 a good price for the Ryandale?

That is the best new price across 9 stores as of November 5, 2026, at Home Depot. Compare against the other listings before buying, since furniture pricing varies widely by retailer.

Can the shelves be adjusted?

Yes, the shelving is adjustable, so you can set spacing for taller books, plants or art. Glass shelves mean you should keep loads balanced across the frame.
