Bookcases

Throughout the life of the Company, bookcases always formed an important part of GR production. The only piece of furniture ever made by Gordon Russell was a simple bookcase made whilst a pupil at Chipping Campden School from old oak floorboards - "a heavy task" as he described it. The workshops produced bookcases ranging from individual pieces for domestic use, through to major library school and university projects. Unit systems were also developed for home and office use to include storage.
