Midcentury Barrister For Sale on 1stDibs

At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal midcentury barrister for your home. A midcentury barrister — often made from glass, metal and wood — can elevate any home. Your living room may not be complete without a midcentury barrister — find older editions for sale from the 20th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. When you’re browsing for the right midcentury barrister, those designed in Industrial, Mid-Century Modern and Arts and Crafts styles are of considerable interest. Many designers have produced at least one well-made midcentury barrister over the years, but those crafted by Globe Wernicke, Hale and Shaw Walker are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

How Much is a Midcentury Barrister?

Prices for a midcentury barrister can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, they begin at $850 and can go as high as $5,800, while the average can fetch as much as $1,796.

Finding the Right bookcases for You

As long as curious people have collected stories, we have needed a place to stow them away and preserve them. When auction houses and book dealers proliferated by the late 17th century, the bibliophile was born. And, of course, as with any treasured objects, a book lover’s volumes were suddenly worthy of a luxurious display — enter the bookcase. Americans of means during the 19th century took to amassing art as well as rare books, and antique bookcases of the era, rife with hand-carved decorative accents and architectural motifs, were ideal for displaying their handsome leather-bound wares.

Although our favorite titles may change over the years, the functionality and beauty of their home within our home is timeless. Whether you proudly shelve your books in regal mahogany or behind glass cabinet doors, a bookcase — or perhaps more than one — is essential to creating a cozy nook for any book lover. Even those who don’t covet the perfect home library can benefit from an attractive display case, as bookcases can easily double as charming étagères

Contemporary and customizable options make it easier for you to find the perfect bookcase for your style and stacks. If you don’t wish to fill your storage piece so that your collection is snug within its confines, incorporate extra space to allow for additional displays and decorative objects. And by introducing a striking dark wood Art Deco bookcase or low-profile mid-century modern design by Paul McCobb into your living room, your signed first editions won’t be the only items making a statement. 

Find your dream bookcase on 1stDibs now.
