The sliding glass doors may no longer be in place (often a historical casualty with these particular pieces), but this is a fine, functional, vintage bookcase still, by British maker, Herbert Gibbs. Indeed, the open front with adjustable shelves means greater versatility as it can house items that spill out the front, such as plants, large books and more. The generous width but shallow depth make this a fantastic storage option where you don’t want something that will intrude into the room too much. We think this could be put to great use in a child or students’ bedroom, or indeed a hallway or landing. Masses of space for books and precious things, and a handy side cupboard for pieces to be hidden away.
