Lovely piece.
What inspired the offset dividers on the doors. It is a very interesting element.
I too am thinking of building a Barristers bookcase for some collectibles I own. How long did it take you?
Thanks! Just saw your comment. The offset was mostly inspired by a combination of other randomly offset pieces the owner liked. Also, he's using the case comic book storage that his wife had to approve of, ha. The offset frames on the doors reminded them of the frames found on a comic book page. It took me hundreds hours of shop to complete. It was a lot of fun, as everyone here understands I'm sure. Did you end up starting one?
