Antique Carved Bookcase For Sale on 1stDibs
Find many varieties of an authentic antique carved bookcase available at 1stDibs. An antique carved bookcase — often made from wood, oak and glass — can elevate any home. Whether you’re looking for an older or newer antique carved bookcase, there are earlier versions available from the 18th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 20th Century. An antique carved bookcase, designed in the Victorian, Arts and Crafts or Georgian style, is generally a popular piece of furniture. You’ll likely find more than one antique carved bookcase that is appealing in its simplicity, but Globe Wernicke, GUNN and Dagmar produced versions that are worth a look.
How Much is a Antique Carved Bookcase?
Prices for an antique carved bookcase can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, they begin at $193 and can go as high as $185,000, while the average can fetch as much as $4,808.
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.
Questions About Antique Carved Bookcase
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Antique carved wood can be identified by how it is made. Antique carvings were done by hand, so nicks and cuts will indicate carvings completed with a plane or knife. In addition, hand-carved wood will not be uniform or have perfect symmetry. Always works with a certified appraiser to determine the exact date and value of an item. Find a variety of antique carved wood furniture and decor on 1stDibs.
