Editor's Note

This grand secretary bookcase is a commanding presence for a home library or formal study. To keep the heavy dark wood tone from overwhelming the room, pair it with a light-colored linen armchair or a soft ivory area rug. Balance the vertical height of the hutch by flanking it with lower-profile pieces like a minimalist side table or a low-backed settee. The internal pigeonholes offer a perfect opportunity to organize stationery while the glass hutch displays fine porcelain or leather-bound books. To maintain its lustrous finish, simply dust with a soft, lint-free cloth regularly.
