A beautiful early 20th Century stacking bookcase by Lebus. The piece offers lots of storage in its four generous glazed sections, together with a bottom pull out drawer. The bookcase splits in to 5 sections for ease of transportation and moving to the room of your choice. The whole piece is presented in perfectly aged oak with the cutest original button handles too. This bookcase has some very attractive features that set it apart from most stacking bookcases; namely the curved lines, the hand carved fretwork to the cornice and the shaped sides to the top of the piece. All marks of quality that would have set this bookcase at the upper end of what Lebus offered in the early 20th Century. This would have been an expensive bookcase when new, and now it is even better with age. We haven’t come across a better Lebus bookcase!

Read moreA rare c1930 Stacking Glazed Bookcase by ESAVIAN
£0FREE Ground Floor Shipping on this item within approximately 150 miles of Cambridgeshire. Far afield and rural areas will incur a charge.
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.
Dimensions:
163cm High, 142cm Max Width, 30cm Max Depth
Bottom section 27cm max internal storage depth
Middle and top sections 20cm max internal storage depth
