Desktop Bookshelf "Shika" 

Shika is a desktop bookshelf. It can hold about five books and uses the weight of the books to maintain stability. The design grew from my desire to make a rustic desktop bookshelf from natural materials, informed by modern patterns of use.

The backbone is carved from a single branch,
the shelf made from four different woods laminated together.

Shika means: Deer (Japanese) Money/ Gold (Ga) Drunkard (Yiddish)
