A 12 piece corner stacking library inspired by the famous Globe Wernicke sectional bookcase from the beginning of the 20th century. Known as the “barristers bookcases”, Globe Wernicke referred to them as “elastic” bookcases in their catalogs, to highlight the flexibility of the sectional units which you can move and rearrange freely. You don’t even have to take the books out since they have doors.

FEATURES:

This is a unique stackable modular system with two bases and two tops (featuring a distinctive rounded look commonly referred to as “waterfall”, “ogee”, or “roll top”). All sections have metal strips, which cover the joints between the them, and also lock one stack to the one next to it. This bookcase is composed of 10 stacking glass front book units and 2 tops.

This Studio Globe Wernicke ® barrister bookcase is made of white cedar hardwood and comes in either a Light or Dark Stain with a slight gloss.  It includes clear glass cabinet flip-up doors and brass hardware and knobs.
