G-PLAN (Ebenezer Gomme) / UK Sierra Wall Unit Book Cabinet #36836

This is the "Sierra" book cabinet designed by Victor Bramwell Wilkins for G-PLAN, a brand that is emblematic of mid-century Britain.

This book cabinet is made up of a base unit and a top unit. The upper part has glass doors and an open space, while the lower part has storage with cutlery. It can be used as a bookshelf, a cupboard, or a display shelf, depending on your preference.

It can be rearranged and combined with units from the same series, so you can purchase the whole series and expand it to create a large wall unit.

The Sierra series was released in the 1970s. It is characterized by a design based on straight lines like the early Brandon series, and is a departure from the rounded Nordic style silhouettes of the Fresco and Brasilia series, which were inherited from the Danish series designed by Larsen. This series is truly a return to the origins. It is a popular series that is said to have sold the most of all G-PLAN series, but the number of units imported to Japan is extremely small, making it a very rare item.

The design has details in common with the circular table designed as part of the Fresco series living collection. It is a long table called a long john table that goes well with a three-seater sofa. It is a highly practical table with a glass top in the center and a rack underneath that doubles as a display and storage space.
