A very rare antique glazed bookcase by ESAVIAN. ESAVIAN (earlier/ also known as ESA – Education Supply Association) produced much of the furniture that was found in schools in England from the early 1920’s to 1970’s. James Leonard join ESA in 1946 as their chief designer and went on to produce much of the highly sought after mi Century old school furniture (chairs, tables bookcases, etc). This early bookcase pre dates James Leonard joining. We estimate it dates to around the 1920’s to early 1930’s. It is completely original throughout, with all original glass and brass drop handles. Hand made form oak it breaks down in to many sections for ease of transportation and siting in the space of your choice.
We think it is a beautiful antique with classic clean lines and a pretty rare find. We have never seen an ESAVIAN piece from this early in the 20th Century.

£0FREE Delivery on this item. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A superb example of Globe Wernicke’s stacking ‘elastic’ bookcase. This is in the more rare and better quality oak veneer and radial cut oak, rather than the more common mahogany veneer ones. All glass and brass ware are original, together with the internal iron works for the ‘up and over’ scissor door lifts system. Pretty rare to see this on the Globe Wernicke’s.
Wernicke Co. produced the Elastic bookcase in Minneapolis, Minnesota in the late 19th Century (founded circa 1882) until they were bought by The Globe Files Co. in 1899. Wernicke invented the elastic bookcase and patented the designs.
Once Globe bought Wernicke the famous brand Globe-Wernicke began producing the elastic stack able book cases under patent in the USA. Thomas Turner also started marketing the design in England. Globe-Wernicke then expanded in to Canada, France, Belgium and Austria.
