Beautiful in Design, Resourceful in Materials, and Fun to Assemble Eco-Friendly
Organic Bamboo 42"H x 33"L Media Tower
Abundant Earth offers home and office bamboo furniture that is easy and fun to
put together and uses sustainably harvested and organically grown "Moso" Bamboo
in a very tasteful
carbonized
amber finish. These modular, reversible designs create numerous possibilities
for media and office arrangements and can be reconfigured numerous times without
affecting the integrity of the unit. In a short amount of time, you can build an
entire system made with no tools, no screws or bolts, and no hard labor. The
pieces are created with a tab/slot design which interlocks and secures each
piece in place, so the end result is a strong, sturdy and fabulous looking
furnishing.
The Organic Bamboo 42"H x 33"L Media Tower provides four 8" high bays
for a/v equipment, a top large enough for a CRT or flat-panel TV up to about
29", and storage for over 240 DVDs or 340 CDs on its eight outer shelves. The
tower comes with two shelf rails so that you can remove a shelf to make room for
larger components like a small TV or game system. Also included are small
connectors that lock the tower to a neighboring stand and provide a back-stop
for the lower shelves so items like CDs and DVDs won't be pushed to the back of
the shelves.

More About Bamboo:
Bamboo is an ecologically friendly and beautiful choice for furnishings. Since Bamboo is a grass, Bamboo
grows and matures much quicker than a tree. Within five years of
sprouting, the walls of the culms (the Bamboo stalks) will have
thickened and hardened and will be ready for harvest.
That means every
year 15 to 20 percent of the forest can be harvested without clear
cutting. Compare that to a hardwood forest and you will see that Bamboo
is a very productive and sustainable plant material for making
furniture. Unlike quick growing pine (aka "trash pine") trees that many
timber companies have planted in place of native trees and forest, and
take at least 25 years to grow large enough to harvest for pulp or
cheap framing lumber, Bamboo grows quickly and has fine building
qualities. Bamboo is also very hard--harder than rock maple, which is
one of the hardest of North American trees. Using Bamboo means less
dings and dents and a more durable product. Since the very straight culm is split and not sawn, there are no curls in the grain, which
means Bamboo is much less likely to break.
These Bamboo Furnishings have a beautiful exotic look and come in a rich golden
amber color
due to their carbonized finish. Bamboo boards are constructed by laminating strips of
Bamboo together in order to create strong dimensional lumber for
building fine furniture.
This is a very effective way to construct
Bamboo lumber. However please note, although rare, small cracks may
sometimes be present and are considered normal in laminated Bamboo
boards. These cracks, if present, will not be over 1/32” in
width and will not affect the structural integrity of the furniture.
New Bamboo may have a slightly grassy scent which should dissipate over
time.
