Description

Discover the charm of the Athos Oak Wood with Light Brass Ending 79.5cm Bookshelf, where functionality meets timeless design. Crafted from warm oak wood, its natural beauty is enhanced by light brass endings, adding a refined touch of elegance. Compact yet spacious, it features three drawers, three shelves, and two sturdy struts, offering a perfect blend of storage and display options. Ideal for modern and traditional interiors alike, this bookshelf harmoniously balances practicality with sophistication. Whether showcasing books, treasures, or decor, it stands as a stunning centrepiece, embodying exquisite craftsmanship and understated luxury in every detail


Our Stylist Says

I’m a fan of the Athos bookcase for its clean lines and warm oak finish - it works equally well in a Scandi-inspired living room or a pared-back home office. The combination of open shelves and three tidy drawers means you can display ceramics, plants and a few art books up top while stashing cables, stationery or paperwork out of sight below. To style it, group items in odd numbers and vary heights: a tall vase next to a low stack of books, say, with a trailing plant to soften the edges. Keep the drawer fronts clutter-free so the brass knobs become a subtle focal point. For cohesion, echo the oak tone elsewhere in the room - a picture frame or side table - and balance the warmth with a textured rug or stoneware accessories.

About Barker and Stonehouse

Founded in 1946, Barker and Stonehouse offer a diverse range of stylish and timeless pieces. From contemporary to traditional designs, Barker and Stonehouse brings sophistication and comfort to every room.

A Remarkable Journey

Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.

Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.

Sustainability at the Forefront

From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.

Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.

Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.

Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons

Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.

They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
