Certain things blow up the Internet with design bloggers. Right now the gold bookshelf or etagere is a hot item. Brass etageres were hot in the 1960's - 1970's, and hovered around in certain not as fashionable Golden Girls style homes for many years later. Billy Baldwin designed the best one ever made.
