Description

Late 19th-century English revolving bookcase, beautifully proportioned and enriched with fine decorative inlay throughout. The four-sided structure provides multiple open compartments for books and objects, all accessible simply by rotating the bookcase on its central pedestal. The restrained architectural lines, warm timber and delicate inlaid details give the piece an elegance beyond its purely practical purpose. Raised on a substantial cross-form revolving base, it offers an ingenious amount of storage while occupying remarkably little floor space. A particularly versatile piece that works beautifully beside a sofa or reading chair, in a library or simply as a freestanding feature in a living room.
