Globe Wernicke Antique Barristers Bookcase
The Globe Wernicke was an American furniture company based in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. The company was founded in 1893, and specialized in the design and manufacture of military equipment.
The company patented the "elastic bookcases" also known as a modular bookcase or barristers bookcase. These were high-quality stacking book shelves, with a standard width of 34 inches, in oak, walnut and mahogany, capable of being adapted to fit together to form a bookcase which could either be all of the same measurements or which could be rearranged by the insertion of units of different depths and heights.
This piece features three units: one top unit and two larger center units. Each unit is banded in iron to strengthen the frame and add a unique element to the set.
