Vintage Design
Characteristic 1950ies shelving unit by Willem Lutjens, great two tone plywood structure teak / birch sticks. Can be used as a bookcase against the wall, or as a freestanding room divider.
During the 1950ies many bookcases were produced using the same modular sticks and shelves system. Only the Lutjens has the typical bentwood ends on the shelves.

Easy to take apart and rebuilding only takes a few minutes. The upper part can also rebuild at the left side.
The design reflects European Modernist era of the fifties, leaded by designers such as Pastoe / Braakman, Rietveld and Scandinavian design by a.o. Hans Wegner.
Today a hard to find design classic, especially in good condition. This one only has minimal usermarks. All cleaned and dry-oil-refinished by original methods.
