About This Piece

Vintage Design

Introducing an exceptional bookcase, a refined example of 1970s French design, created by talented designers Gil and Xavier David. This piece, dating back to 1972, embodies the fusion of functionality and visually interesting aesthetics typical of the period.

The structure of this bookcase is made of black lacquered wood, with a distinctive slatted design that forms the side uprights and central elements. This choice not only gives the piece remarkable sturdiness, but also an intriguing play of light and shadow, creating an almost sculptural effect. The dark lacquer adds a touch of elegance and sophistication, making it suitable for a variety of interiors, from contemporary to classic modernist.

The shelves are made of thick transparent glass, which gives visual lightness to the sturdy structure and allows light to pass through, enhancing the objects on display. The modularity of the design, with slatted elements that intersect and repeat, allows for great versatility in the display of books, art objects or collections.

This bookcase is not only a practical storage piece, but also a statement piece that reflects a taste for high-quality design. Its clean lines and combination of lacquered wood and glass make it an ideal addition to living rooms, studies, entrances or exhibition spaces seeking a touch of elegance and authentic design.
