With no doors to cover and protect the shelves and open bookcase is a simple and yet very practical way to store and display all your books and ornaments. Although simple in form, many antique 19th and early 20th Century examples were decorated with slender columns, characterful carvings and elegant inlays. These were bookcases created to hold and display expensive books and be on show themselves, so they are usually made of either Oak, Mahogany or Walnut as each can offer very pleasing grains and strong construction. All these features make old bookcases eminently desirable even today.
At Love Antiques we have a large selection of open bookcases for all your needs.
