Finding the Right Bookcases for You

Whether you proudly shelve your books in regal mahogany or behind glass cabinet doors, an antique bookcase — or perhaps more than one — is essential to creating a cozy nook for any book lover.

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 decorative objects or collectibles, 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 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. 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 barrister bookcases, Globe Wernicke bookcases, bookcases with doors and other vintage and antique bookcases on 1stDibs now.

Questions About Leaded Glass Bookcase
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    Yes, leaded glass is safe because the food or drink isn’t in contact with the glass for long enough for the lead to seep in. If you’re feeling a bit uneasy about it, there are plenty of glass options that contain no lead.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The purpose of leaded glass is purely decorative. Although “leaded glass” is an umbrella term that also includes stained glass, leaded glass can also refer to the clear variety. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of leaded glass designs from some of the top sellers around the world.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022
    Yes, most Steuben glass is roughly 30 percent lead. Transparent colorless glassware produced by the brand is usually free of stones, seeds and cords, giving it a true crystal-clear quality. You can find a collection of Steuben glass on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024
    Yes, borosilicate glass is lead free. Instead of lead, silica and boron trioxide are the main glass-forming components of the material. Its unique properties make borosilicate glass highly resistant to the effects of heat. Explore a large selection of glassware from some of the world's top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024
    Whether Anchor Hocking glass contains lead varies. Contemporary pieces generally don't contain lead. However, vintage and antique crystalware and glassware made by the manufacturer might. Home lead testing kits are available for determining whether a particular piece has traces of lead. On 1stDibs, find a range of Anchor Hocking glass.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021
    A bookcase with glass doors is also called a barrister bookcase. Designed in a cabinet style, these bookcases’ glass doors protect books and collectibles from gathering dust and allow guests to peruse your treasured volumes. The name “barrister” owes to the legal profession — barristers are experts in case law in England and traditionally required numerous law books for reference purposes to travel from chamber to chamber, and the sturdy and portable cabinets that were used to do so earned this nickname. Shop a collection of antique, vintage, and contemporary bookcases from some of the world’s top dealers on 1stDibs.
