A brief history of the bookcase
Long reserved for palaces, the bookcase made its way into private interiors in the 18th century with the rise of a taste for literature. It is distinguished by its adjustable shelves thanks to a rack-and-pinion system, a technical innovation allowing the height to be adjusted according to the size of the bindings. Before being a mobile piece of furniture, it was often built into the woodwork of castles; it was the bourgeoisie who made it an independent piece of furniture that could be moved as desired. And whether open or glazed, it is the sanctuary of knowledge, formerly called "librairie" (bookshop) in old inventories.
