The word library comes from the Greek bibliotheca, meaning storage furniture. Replacing the trunk, the library once resembled a cupboard. The addition of grilles and glass panels ensured better preservation of books. High, low, imposing or small, the bookcase came (and still comes) in all shapes and sizes. It became a popular piece of furniture between the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, the bookcase is a trendy and practical piece of furniture. Books and decorative objects are stored in them to create a warm and welcoming space.
Our site offers raw wood bookcases with old-fashioned charm. You'll appreciate the craftsmanship of the materials and the detail of the finishes. In fact, each solid wood bookcase has different features. Some have open shelves, while others are glazed. Some have drawers at the bottom, others have doors. Some are designed exclusively in wood, while others have small touches of metal. Although they're all different, these antique bookcases have one thing in common: their authenticity.
Your choice of bookcase depends on the function you wish to give it. An antique bookcase can be used to store books, but not only! You can also use it as a decorative storage unit. You can place decorative objects on the shelves (frames, candles, knick-knacks...) and store useful items in the doors and drawers. In terms of design, a rustic bookcase is ideal for a country house decor, while a rough wood and metal bookcase is perfect for an industrial setting.
