Finding the Right Bookcases for You

Whether you proudly shelve your books in regal mahogany or behind glass cabinet doors, an antique bookcase — or perhaps more than one — is essential to creating a cozy nook for any book lover.

As long as curious people have collected stories, we have needed a place to stow them away and preserve them. When auction houses and book dealers proliferated by the late 17th century, the bibliophile was born. And, of course, as with any treasured decorative objects or collectibles, a book lover’s volumes were suddenly worthy of a luxurious display — enter the bookcase.

Americans of means during the 19th century took to amassing art as well as rare books, and bookcases of the era — rife with hand-carved decorative accents and architectural motifs — were ideal for displaying their handsome leather-bound wares.

Although our favorite titles may change over the years, the functionality and beauty of their home within our home is timeless. Even those who don’t covet the perfect home library can benefit from an attractive display case, as bookcases can easily double as charming étagères

Contemporary and customizable options make it easier for you to find the perfect bookcase for your style and stacks. If you don’t wish to fill your storage piece so that your collection is snug within its confines, incorporate extra space to allow for additional displays and decorative objects. And by introducing a striking dark wood Art Deco bookcase or low-profile mid-century modern design by Paul McCobb into your living room, your signed first editions won’t be the only items making a statement. 

Find barrister bookcases, Globe Wernicke bookcases, bookcases with doors and other vintage and antique bookcases on 1stDibs now.

Questions About Bookcases And China Cabinets
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    A china cabinet is a piece of furniture with a glass front, used to display porcelain or sterling silver dinnerware. It is also known as a china cabinet, breakfront or hutch. Shop a range of antique and vintage cabinets on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A china cabinet is a piece of furniture with glass panels used to hold and display china or ceramics. China cabinets grew in popularity in the late 1600s and 1700s with the rise of porcelain exports to Europe. You’ll find a range of china cabinets and other display cases on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The point of a china cabinet is to safely store valuable dinnerware, serveware and decorative objects without hiding them from sight. Because their doors feature glass panels, you can see inside but dust cannot easily enter. On 1stDibs, find a selection of antique and vintage china cabinets.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Refurbishing a china cabinet comes down to restoring the wood it was made out of. Take off the hardware, sand and stain the wood and then reassemble. Voila! Just like new. Or, save the hassle and shop a variety of vintage and antique china cabinets on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    A small china cabinet is called a hutch. Shop hutches and other storage furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019

    The main difference between a hutch and a china cabinet is their locations in a home. Although they look similar, a hutch can be placed in nearly any room and has a multipurpose use (for storage or displaying collections). A china cabinet is always in a dining room or kitchen and is used for storing and displaying fine china.

  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A low and long piece of freestanding cabinetry that can hold china and other accessories can be called a sideboard or a buffet. Both of these pieces are similar in form and function and sometimes the terms are used interchangeably. When used in the dining room it’s typically called a buffet and in the living room it’s a sideboard. Find an assortment of sideboards and buffets from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    For an item to be considered antique, it needs to be 100 years or older. It can be tricky to determine the age of a cabinet on your own. The best way to determine the value and age of your china cabinet is to work with a certified appraiser. You’ll find expertly vetted antique china cabinets and other furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    How much an antique china cabinet is worth depends on the style of the cabinet, age and condition. Any additional features/decorative touches might increase the worth of the cabinet. That is, a cabinet with hand painting or carving will cost more in general. Also, the older the cabinet, the more its value. An antique china cabinet can be purchased for $1500 onwards. Find a collection of antique china cabinets today on 1stDibs.
