Shelf opinions

[Sharkey]

Hey guys, I've got a co-worker looking to get rid of a wardrobe and was wondering if any of you might know how well it might serve as a statue display case.

It is an IKEA PAX wardrobe: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/pr...563/#/30183989

She has it in the wood trim, but I'm not sure how well that would go with displaying statues. I have some white STUVA shelves in my room right now (this wardrobe would go in my basement office for extra displays) and really like it, so was leaning towards passing on this and just saving for more white shelves.

What are your opinions?

I'd definitely go with the white; it's a very clean look. While I've seen impressive displays implementing all sorts of color schemes and shelving, the light colored wood grain effect has never been appealing to me. On top of that, PAX shelves need a bit of modding to be "display ready," so if you're not 100% on the color, you're best off saving time and money. Just my opinion, of course.

What kind of modding do you mean?
