Niels Dekker – The Globe Wernicke Specialist

Since 2001, Niels Dekker, owner of The Antique Warehouse, has been a leading specialist in original Globe-Wernicke bookcases — an iconic modular library system that is valued worldwide by enthusiasts of classic interiors, collectors, and libraries.

With in-depth knowledge of these unique cabinets and a keen eye for authenticity, Niels Dekker personally selects original Globe-Wernicke elements. These are primarily sourced from the United Kingdom, where many authentic parts from the early twentieth century can still be found.

In the in-house restoration workshop, the elements undergo a careful restoration process. With respect for the original craftsmanship, the components are restored with great precision, ensuring they retain their historical character while meeting the highest aesthetic and technical standards.

The result is a collection of exceptional quality, beloved by customers around the world.

What truly makes Niels Dekker unique is that you can personally assemble your ideal bookcase here. From an extensive selection of authentic Globe-Wernicke elements — in various heights, sections, and finishes — a bookcase is created that perfectly matches your interior, space, and library. You can create a stack of Globe Wernicke bookcase from a base, 1 element, and crown to an entire library.

Each bookcase comes with an official certificate of authenticity, confirming the origin and originality of the used Globe-Wernicke components.

A Globe-Wernicke bookcase from Niels Dekker is therefore not just a piece of furniture, but a timeless heirloom — composed of original historical elements and restored with attention to detail and preservation of the past.
