A barrister bookcase is designed to give you flexible storage options for books and display items. Traditionally, barrister bookcases are made of individual shelf units that can be stacked together to form a cabinet. They often have glass doors that can be closed to keep books from falling out. In past centuries, these features were important to British lawyers – called barristers – for whom they were named. Barristers changed offices frequently, and would often take books to court, so their books needed to be easy to transport. Today, these bookcases can have many looks ranging from tall, slender styles to horizontal units with flexible shelving to house a variety of belongings.
