+1 to solid wood Amish furniture
I've ordered a few pieces from Hedge House Furniture (https://hedgehousefurniture.com/collections/storage) and am very satisfied. They aren't cheap but they've also been able to customize the dimensions and their designs are more to my taste.
The plan B which we used for some things in the house was a custom build. (Not meaning to shill or anything but they did a fantastic job and in your shoes I would explore their bookcases: https://www.dutchcrafters.com/Amish-Bookcases/cat/146). The prices are up there but I figure are about the same inflation-adjusted as what my grandpa would have paid 80 years ago.
