Design Toscano OA946 Stacked Books Side Table
Have you seen furniture that looks like books? There are all kinds. Some are wood, some are resin and all are really fun and functional furniture
The Furniture for Bibliophiles from Design Toscano is made to look like worn leather bound books with faux gold gilding. They are wood or MDF (a strong kind of particle board).
Carved wood furniture is hand-painted to look like stacked books.
Our Toscano-exclusive trompe l’oeil side table “fools the eye” with its intricately hand-painted volumes that create a wooden work of furniture art. Faux books with authentic metal pulls slide out to reveal a single drawer, while others open as double doors for convenient storage near a favorite chair or in an entryway. This clever addition to any room is truly part fun and part function that’s perfect for the most avid bibliophile!
