Bookcase Search

I'm trying to figure out what book case to order for my new apartment. I have a fair amount of books and figurines that I want to display. Like, a lot of books! Bookcases are an important part of a living room.

That said: I'm struggling with this choice. I don't know if I want to go for a metal style or wooden ones. I like the metal ones because they seem very open and bright. While the wooden ones are darker, they also warm a room.  I'm also not sure if I want to order from Ikea or from Amazon Prime. Whichever site I order from: If I order before the move, I can have the movers put it together for me.

Monarch Reclaimed-Look/Chrome Metal Bookcase, 72-Inch, Dark Taupe ($226)

This feels very contemporary to me, but I'm not sure about the asymmetric vertical supports. 

Coaster Chrome Shelf ($248)

The arched metal looks lovely as does the glass shelving. It's so airy and open!

Ikea KLINGSBO cabinet ($129) / Ikea DETOLF glass cabinet ($65)

I would really like these to display my figurines. One is much more expensive but also has more shelves; the metal bottom is pretty too. 

Home Styles 5061-76 The Orleans 5-Tier Multi-function Vintage Shelf ($266)

This shelf has so many neat details. The stone seems like a great effect - very elegant. I think this would really define a great place.

King's Brand BK08 Wood Wall Corner 5-Tier Bookshelf Case, Espresso Finish ($70)

This seems great for saving space. I'm going to look at the floor plan to see if I need something like this. I certainly would've loved it when I was in the dorms.

 Linon Home Decor Titian Bookcase ($138)

I like the detailing on the side of it. Such an excellent warm color too!

IKEA HEMNES Glass door cabinet ($365)

I really want at least one shelf to be able to be closed to dust. This doesn't really feel like a living room piece of furniture, but the drawers are great for hiding mess.
