Large Czechoslovakian Modernist Oak and Walnut Freestanding Wall Unit by Jitona
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Versatile freestanding wall-unit/bookcase in oak, walnut, and pine with aluminum, steel, and brass accents by Jitona (1968, Lomnice nad Lužnicí, Czechoslovakia). Five bays can be assembled in total if all pieces are utilized together - seven pine rails, three long shelves, three long cabinets (including one that is half drawers/half open storage), three long glass fronted cabinets, two shorter cabinets, three shorter glass fronted cabinets, and one drop-down cabinet/bar with glass shelves. All cabinet shelves are removable, though not adjustable. Feet for the cabinets and rails are all adjustable, and the disks on the rails offer stability and protection to both floors and ceilings when adjustments are made. The longer pieces displayed as the three bay unit are all 35.25" long, while the shorter pieces displayed as the two bay unit are all 29.5" L. The configuration options for this highly functional unit are limitless. The bar cabinet, five-drawer walnut chest, glass-fronted cabinets, door-fronted cabinets, and two shelves can be custom-assembled based on requirements/aesthetic preference; the shorter pieces just need to be arranged within the same two bays. The legs for all cabinets can be removed, though, depending on the heft of the items displayed/stored, wall-mounting might be required if the weight is too great for the rails alone to adequately support. The 29.38" high cabinets with legs (if using the legs) must be arranged at the bottom, leaving 64.75" of usable rail height for mounting the other pieces. There are some fleabites to the glass (mostly to the edges concealed by the wooden frame when closed) along with light wear the wood consistent with age/use. Conservatively restored and in very fine, vintage condition. Assembled as a 5-bay unit as shown in the fifth image: Measures: H: 105.38" x L: 171" x D: 16". Assembled as a 3-bay unit with the longer pieces: H: 105.38" x L: 109.63" x D: 16" Assembled as a 2-bay until with the shorter pieces: H: 105.38" x L: 62" x D: 15.63" Each piece of the 3-bay system's measurements - * Two cabinets with doors: Exterior - H: 29.38" (with legs) / 18.5" (without) x L: 35.25" x D: 15.75" / 16.75" (with pls) Interior - Height above the shelf: 7.25" / below 8.25" x L: 34" x D: (shelf) 13.25" / lower surface 14.25" * Drawers: Exterior - H: 29.38" (with legs) / 18.5" (without) x L: 17.5" x D: 15.75" / 16.75" (with drawer pls) Interior (each drawer) - H: 2" x L: 15.38" x D: 13.25" * Small cabinet: Exterior - H: 29.38" (with legs) / 18.5" (without) x L: 17.5" x D: 15.75" / 16.75" (with pls) Interior - Height above the shelf: 8.25" / below 8.25" x L: 16" x D: 14.38" * Glass-fronted cabinets: Exterior - H: 24.5" x L: 35.25" x D: 9.75" Interior - Height above the shelf: 11" / below 11.5" x L: 34" x D: (shelf) 8" / lower surface 9" * Three shelves - H: 0.63" x L: 35.25" x D: 9.75" Each piece of the 2-bay system's interior measurements - * Two cabinets with doors: Exterior - H: 29.75" (with legs) / 18.63" (without) x L: 29.5" x D: 15.63" / 16.63" (with drawer pls) Interior - Height above the shelf: 8" / below 8.5" x L: 28" x D: (shelf) 13.13" / lower surface 14.38" * Glass-fronted cabinets: Exterior - H: 24.25" x L: 29.5" x D: 10" Interior - Height above the shelf: 11.13" / below 11.25" x L: 28" x D: (shelf) 7.75" / lower surface 8.13" * Bar cabinet: Exterior - H: 18.25" x L: 29.5" x D: 10" / 25.88" (when open) Interior - Height (excluding shelves): 16.88" x L: (left side) 9" / (right side) 18.5" x D: 7.75" (shelf) Rails alone: H: 105.38" (the height can be adjusted via a rail extender to, which will be included, and can be increased to 108") x L: 0.88" x D: 5" Cabinet legs...

Vintage and Antique Bookcases for Sale: Shop Art Deco Bookcases, Globe Wernicke Bookcases and Barrister Bookcases on 1stDibs

Whether you proudly shelve your books in regal mahogany or behind glass cabinet doors, an antique bookcase — or perhaps more than one — is essential to creating a cozy nook for any book lover.

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 decorative objects or collectibles, 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 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. 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 barrister bookcases, Globe Wernicke bookcases, bookcases with doors and other vintage and antique bookcases on 1stDibs now.
