$6K Polar Bear Bookshelf

File this one under “If only we had the disposable income.” The Joe Bookshelf from French company iBride (say it: “e-breed”) earns its $6,000 sticker price in part from an intricate, turn-of-the-century construction process and what feels like miles of usable space spread over its beautiful, latticework frame. The polar bear measures 45″ x 81″ x 33,” and though we secretly wish it were solid wood, the frame is, like so many other modern pieces, made from a high-pressure laminate with a pre-recycled wood core. Get yours from Burke Decor, or just admire it from afar. [Outblush]
