ABOUT PRODUCTID 9924
This bookcase by A.H. McIntosh, produced in the United Kingdom during the 1960s, exemplifies classic mid-century modern design. The structure is crafted from teak wood, finished in a warm, medium brown tone with a subtle reddish undertone that highlights the natural wood grain. The piece is characterized by precise lines and restrained form: the right section is enclosed with two sliding panels made from new, clear glass, while the left section features a solid teak door with an integrated sculpted handle typical of the era. Slender, slightly splayed legs create a distinctive stylistic accent, and the interior is fitted with two adjustable shelves finished in matching teak veneer. The satin finish emphasizes both the smoothness and uniformity of the wood surface. The bookcase is in excellent condition—fully restored, with new glass and a flawless, even wood surface showing no visible signs of wear. This piece echoes the voice of 1960s Britain: its restrained form and natural materials speak to a search for harmony between function and aesthetics. The teak veneer, softly catching the light, recalls the atmosphere of domestic libraries from decades past, where books and personal items had their designated place. The sculpted handle and minimalist shape reveal the era’s spirit—merging crafted precision with the subtle organic quality of the material. The bookcase could serve as a central element in a mid-century modern living room, especially when paired with an upholstered armchair on slender legs or a low teak coffee table. It would also suit eclectic, collector-driven interiors—alongside
