ABOUT COLOR VARIANCE

Colors can appear different under different lighting conditions. The same material may look warmer under 3000K light, more neutral under 4000K, and cooler under 6000K or natural daylight.

Natural materials may also vary slightly in color, tone, grain, and texture from piece to piece. Screen settings and photography can further affect how colors appear online.

These variations are a natural characteristic of the material and are not considered defects. For the most accurate reference, we recommend viewing the material under the lighting conditions of your actual space.

    Alvar Arched 30" Oak Storage Cabinet with Drawers
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    So stylish

    I’m really happy with the Alvar cabinet from Houlte. It looks beautiful in person—warm oak finish, elegant arched doors, and a clean modern design. It feels sturdy and well-made, and the storage is very practical while still looking minimal and stylish. It fits perfectly into my space and adds a cozy, elevated touch.

    Alvar Arched Bookcase with Cabinet 79"H
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Aesthetic and practical storage.

    I love the mix of open shelving and the cabinet below. I put my favorite decor on the top shelves and keep my more delicate books behind the glass doors to stay dust-free. The glass arches on the doors match the top perfectly. It’s a very cohesive and thoughtful design.
