Arthur Three‑Tier Arts & Crafts Bookcase in Traditional Pegged Joinery
type: Product
description: We are delighted to introduce Arthur, a stunning Arts & Crafts–inspired three‑tier bookcase, built with traditional pegged construction and pierced trefoil cut‑outs to the uprights. The back strips screwed at the back of the unit add to its rigidity and prevent objects from falling behind. The Arts & Crafts movement championed the belief that everyday objects should be made with honesty, skill, and beauty. Makers of the period rejected mass‑production in favour of visible joinery, hand‑cut ornament, and straightforward, purposeful forms. Their work drew deeply on medieval craftsmanship, reviving techniques, motifs, and proportions that celebrated the maker’s hand. During the Edwardian era, Liberty & Co. became one of the movement’s most influential retailers. Their celebrated Sedley bookcases, with exposed pegs and the distinctive trefoil‑and‑arch motif, embodied the movement philosophy and principles. Arthur is created in that same spirit: simple, well‑proportioned, and enriched with meaningful detail. Craftsmanship & Timber Arthur is crafted in beautifully figured tulip wood, a timber chosen for its fine grain, density, and expressive natural colouration. Tulip wood is wonderfully characterful: its tones can range from mellow yellow‑brown to deeper browns, greenish, even burgundy streaks, and occasional dramatic figuring. Because this timber varies so much in hue and pattern, each Arthur bookcase will be entirely unique. Some pieces will be lighter and more uniform; others will display bold streaks or richer colour shifts. This individuality is part of the charm of tulip wood and a hallmark of handcrafted furniture — no two bookcases will ever be identical, and your piece will have its own natural personality. Dimensions Height: 97.5 cm Width: 51 cm Depth: 20 cm Finishes We offer two standard finishes: natural and oiled & waxed. Tulip wood has such inherent warmth and interest that we love it just as it is, but if you would prefer Arthur stained or painted to suit…
