French Art Nouveau-Style Inlaid Bookcase by Emile Gallè

A showcase of unrivaled cabinetmaking expertise, this bookcase is a minute reproduction of an original design by Emile Gallè dating back to circa 1880-1915. Phytomoprhic elements, such as the spike, reveal its naturalistic inspiration, which is further stated by the back where multiple exotic wooden essences are combined to achieve a striking inlaid pattern of leaves and butterflies.
