Kartell Polvara modular snap in Bookshelf elements

KARTELL Polvara modular Bookshelf elements.

These are to suit the Polvara system, which is practical, executive looking snap together storage display & screen system.

This Modular Bookshelf has no invisible joints & is finished in a gloss lacquer. Each element simply snaps together without any tools. This design was inspired by the classic building block toy. The Kartell Modular Bookshelf allows you to create shelves with a wide range of sizes & configurations.

This KARTELL Modular Bookshelf shelving system is made up of three types of joints and four sizes of shelves/panels, all in either gloss black or gloss white ABS plastic. No tools are needed during assembly, simply press each of the elements to lock them together.

This Modular Bookshelf can be used as a self supporting dividing screen, as a display/storage unit for books, files, pictures, ornaments, toys, 12" vinyl records etc. All shelves & joints are available in gloss white or gloss black. The CUBE drawers are available to suit the MEDIUM sized shelves & are in white, black, yellow, red & light blue.
