This luxurious revolving bookcase in black walnut is softly nostalgic with a smooth revolving mechanism with apertures sized for modern paperbacks.

Made by Chris of Heliconia Furniture Design, the bookcase is named after a biography of Percy Shelley by Andre Maurois, which was one of ten titles chosen for the launch of Penguin paperbacks in 1935.

The name Ariel apparently comes from the boat which Shelley designed and which was sank off the coast of Italy, leading to his death.

Dimensions – 65cm h x 45cm square. 24kg.

The cabinet rotates on a turntable mechanism which is attached to a solid walnut base. Also available in Oak.
