AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Freestanding modular bookcase (or ground-to-ceiling) of Italian manufacture dating from the 1960s. The design blends the elegance of Italian mid-century modern with the strong influence of Scandinavian style.
Characteristics
The structure is composed of three sections supported by four vertical metal uprights painted black. At the top and bottom ends there are the typical adjustable brass feet, designed to ensure stability by adapting to the height of the ceiling or floor.
Measurements: width 215 cm, depth 35 cm, height 300 cm, noting that the feet are adjustable
The bookcase can only be collected from the purchaser's home in Turin, Italy.
Very good condition with some signs of wear
On the four uprights at the top, the supports for the feet have been reattached with a plug-in joint and tape, because the previous owner had cut them to fit his house.
Obviously this does not affect the sturdiness and stability.
