Adjustable Bookcases For Sale on 1stDibs

There are 104 antique and vintage adjustable bookcases for sale at 1stDibs, while we also have 5 modern editions to choose from as well. Adjustable bookcases have long been popular, with older editions for sale from the 19th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 21st Century. Mid-Century Modern, Modern and Victorian adjustable bookcases are consistently popular styles. Not every interior allows for large adjustable bookcases, so small adjustable bookcases measuring 20.48 inches across are available at 1stDibs. Adjustable bookcases have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Kurt Østervig, Beresford & Hicks and Bevan Funnell Ltd. are consistently popular.

How Much are Adjustable Bookcases?

Adjustable bookcases can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $2,877, while the lowest priced sells for $566 and the highest can go for as much as $15,575.

Finding the Right Bookcases for You

As long as curious people have collected stories, we have needed a place to stow them away and preserve them. When auction houses and book dealers proliferated by the late 17th century, the bibliophile was born. And, of course, as with any treasured objects, a book lover’s volumes were suddenly worthy of a luxurious display — enter the bookcase. Americans of means during the 19th century took to amassing art as well as rare books, and antique bookcases of the era, rife with hand-carved decorative accents and architectural motifs, were ideal for displaying their handsome leather-bound wares.

Although our favorite titles may change over the years, the functionality and beauty of their home within our home is timeless. Whether you proudly shelve your books in regal mahogany or behind glass cabinet doors, a bookcase — or perhaps more than one — is essential to creating a cozy nook for any book lover. Even those who don’t covet the perfect home library can benefit from an attractive display case, as bookcases can easily double as charming étagères

Contemporary and customizable options make it easier for you to find the perfect bookcase for your style and stacks. If you don’t wish to fill your storage piece so that your collection is snug within its confines, incorporate extra space to allow for additional displays and decorative objects. And by introducing a striking dark wood Art Deco bookcase or low-profile mid-century modern design by Paul McCobb into your living room, your signed first editions won’t be the only items making a statement. 

Find your dream bookcase on 1stDibs now.
