House Note · About this piece

The arch has framed books for a long time. In Georgian and Victorian houses, shelves were often fitted into the recesses either side of a chimney breast, and the finest of those alcoves were finished with a rounded head, so the books sat inside a shape borrowed from a doorway or a window.

This is the mid-height version, five feet tall and a little narrower than the wide one, with the same rounded arches front and back and four open shelves between them. Its open back and sides keep it light in a smaller room. It is built in wood in Blonde, Jet or Chestnut, the shelves will hold up to 220 lbs in all, and it stands on glides that protect the floor. Some assembly is needed.

At this height it suits a child's room, with picture books low down where small hands can reach them, or a sunroom under a window, holding seed catalogues, a watering can and a few pots of herbs. In a living room it makes a good display case for a collection of shells or ceramics, with a lamp on top. Each finish sits happily with white walls, rattan and soft green.
