Lower Bookcase For Sale on 1stDibs

With a vast inventory of beautiful furniture at 1stDibs, we’ve got just the lower bookcase you’re looking for. Frequently made of wood, hardwood and mahogany, every lower bookcase was constructed with great care. You’ve searched high and low for the perfect lower bookcase — we have versions that date back to the 19th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 20th Century are available. A lower bookcase is a generally popular piece of furniture, but those created in Mid-Century Modern, Arts and Crafts and Georgian styles are sought with frequency. A well-made lower bookcase has long been a part of the offerings for many furniture designers and manufacturers, but those produced by Jan Van Der Togt, Tomado and De Puydt are consistently popular.

How Much is a Lower Bookcase?

The average selling price for a lower bookcase at 1stDibs is $3,042, while they’re typically $425 on the low end and $6,190 for the highest priced.

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.
