About Autumn Oak
Autumn Oak is a walk through October woods: wine-red, burnt rust and the deep brown of wet bark. These real hardcover books are sorted to burgundy, rust and deep brown spines, the palette of an old study, a leather armchair and a fire in the grate. It's warm, collected and a little moody in the best way. On dark wood or paneled shelves it feels like a library that's been there for generations. Mixed with tan and cream, it turns a white bookcase cozy. It's a natural for dining rooms, dens and the fall and holiday season. Choose a five-book shelf stack for a mantel or coffee table, or a foot or two to warm a whole bookcase. Titles vary. Good used condition: clean and intact, with light shelf wear possible. Ships free to the continental U.S.
