A lovely early 20th-century oak barrister’s bookcase by The Globe-Wernicke Co. Ltd., Office & Library Furnishers, London.

The piece retains its original Globe-Wernicke brass plaques and metal side bands, along with its small turned wooden handles. The warm golden oak finish has aged beautifully, showing the gentle wear and patina expected of a well-cared-for antique.
A highly functional and elegant piece of Edwardian office furniture, ideal for displaying books, curiosities, or collections in both traditional and contemporary interiors.
