Read more1960s Bookcase by Staverton in Hague Blue
£0FREE Two man ground floor delivery on this piece to most UK postcodes. Further afield and more remote areas will incur a surcharge.
A completely unique original mid century glazed bookcase, produced by Staverton in 1962. This piece came to us in such a terrible state of veneer and dirt. We couldn’t save the veneer so we had to rethink a complete refurbishment and reinvention. The whole bookcase was fully stripped back and refinished in Farrow & Ball Hague Blue, with a clear coat of wax for resilience and protection. The inside was fully sanded back, cleaned and re-varnished. The doors were all stripped, sanded back and refinished in Hague Blue then glazed with new reeded glass for a true contemporary finish. We love the finished piece! A real fusion of original mid century meets Contemporary practicality.
We have styled the bookcase as a mix of books and drinks cabinet but this could have so many potential uses e.g a kitchen cupboard for glass, mugs, cups etc, a spice rack and cooking ingredients store, a bathroom cabinet for towels and toiletries, a bedroom piece for hair and beauty products, the list goes on…… 🙂

Read moreMatching Pair of Solid Oak Mid Century Bookcases
£0FREE Shipping on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield areas will incur a charge to send via couriers.
An excellent example of original mid century low glazed bookcases/ units, with original glass, shelf and supports. These bookcases were supplied by Hopewell’s of Nottingham, still in business today. Established as a family Furnishings shop in 1885, they are now based in Huntingdon Street but were in Parliament Street in the 1940’s, 50’s and 60’s – giving these bookcases their date of circa late 195o’s to early 1960’s. There are plenty of signs of quality to the bookcases. They are made from very good quality solid oak with very nice quarter drawn oak (only possible on good quality oak). The shelves are solid oak too, with chamfered and rounded edges. The shelf supports and retaining holes are brass and brass bound. The doors are all their original glass with no chips to the edges or visible scratches. With their trapezoid shape (narrower at the top, wider at the bottom) they are a beautiful, heavy, matching pair of quality mid Century bookcases. They came to us as a pair and were probably bought new as a pair. We would therefore like to keep them together and sell as a pair.
Very stylish, flexible in their use, and easily accommodatable size. A superb pair.

Read moreMid Century Ladderax Unit by Staples
£0FREE Shipping on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield areas will incur a charge to send via couriers.
An excellent example of the incredibly popular and highly sought after Ladderax system by Staples. These were produced in the 1950’s to 70’s in modular form. You bought as many uprights as you needed to form the number of bays that you required. You then bought the units and shelves that fitted in to the bays. This one dates to the 1960’s and has the much rarer teak wood uprights, rather than metal. The piece is in excellent vintage condition and has all of the right components to offer fantastically stylish storage. All doors slide well and are original.
The piece easily disassembles for transportation.

A very stylish and completely original 1950’s glazed bookcase. The bookcase is constructed from solid wood throughout, which is reflected in the weight of the piece. It is in completely original condition with both sliding glass doors free form any chips to the edges. There is one scratch to the left door which is not visible until very close (unable to photograph). It couldn’t be more 1950’s in its styling – and sits atop the cutest little turned legs. A real treasure.

A very stylish and unique mid century glazed bookcase. Handwritten inside dates the piece to at least 1948.

The glass is original, along with a working lock and key. We love the finished piece – nice and compact but packing a real unique style statement.
