Read more1960’s 5 Tier Stacking Bookcase by Simplex
£0FREE Shipping on this item. Far afield and rural areas will incur a charge.
A stunning mid century five tier stacking bookcase by Simplex. The cabinetry is in beautiful Light Oak finish. The sections are interchangeable in how you stack them (apart from the bottom and top sections). The sections are graduated in height with the bottom section being the tallest and deepest and also having the rare solid doors. The doors are all usually glass. Beautiful original condition with all original glass. So much storage that was full to the seams of books. It can now be styled exactly as you wish. A piece in this good condition with such clean lines is so flexible and so desirable. A real vintage gem!
Clean lines and mid century styling that makes a real statement. A beautiful quality piece that will only appreciate in value if looked after.

Read moreMid Century Stacking Barristers Bookcase
£0FREE Shipping on this item. Far afield and rural areas will incur a charge.
A gorgeous and very useful mid century stacking barristers bookcase in a walnut veneer finish. The bookcase comes in four sections for ease of transportation and positioning. It is super handy to have a solid door on one of the sections for hiding the less slightly but necessary things. The solid section could be placed above one of the glass sections if you preferred a different order. All three doors are up and over doors and all run really easily. The sections are also nice and tall for storing larger books, bottles, etc. There is also an additional drawer at the bottom. All original glass and cue brass handles. It probably dates to the 1960’s and is presented in very good original condition throughout.
Very stylish and super practical!
Height: 170cm
Max Depth: 39cm
Width: 80cm
Upper three sections are 45cm high.
