d handle bookrack with hand carved rose & stem ends

A century ago, Gustav Stickley designed his #74 Bookrack.  And what it trumpeted with function, it lacked somewhat in style.  Our D handle bookrack combines the great function of Stickley's piece, but adds great proportions and styling, making it a focal point in any craftsman inspired setting.  A custom hand carved rose and stem, arts & crafts motif prominently sets off the end panel.  

Our rendition employs traditional old world joinery, cut upon hand selected boards of quarter sawn oak.  The joinery is then fine tuned by hand; checked; and then rechecked until perfect.  We then finish the piece to a beautiful satin luster, and hand rub wax into the finish, just as was done one hundred years ago on the originals.
