The Globe Wernicke Bookcase
Well known for its quality and craftsmanship, the Globe Wernicke was manufactured from around 1900 to 1950. The modular and stackable design offers great versatility, which is why it is often referred to as the elastic bookcase.
Often in oak and aged to a rich and warm shade the bookcases proudly display the makers distinctive label. The glass panel lift doors originally designed to keep books dust free offer a practical and stylish storage and display solution for anything from handbags to kitchenalia.
We love this antique two piece Globe Wernicke bookcase with it's simple moulded top and a shaped plinth incorporating a useful drawer currently available to buy on the Bowden Knight website.
