The Wisdom Tree is a magnificent name for this extraordinary bookshelf. Its sinewy branches can hold not only books but small pieces of art; with its hot red color and quirky shape, it has a Dr. Seuss feel about it. The smaller bookend-like supports are covered in a similar hue of leather, adding a second texture to the shelving unit.
Designer Jordi Mila of Spain says that The Wisdom Tree is "...for people who see books as a source of knowledge and emotions and not simply as decorative objects."
