This hollow book safe has been upcycled from a vintage navy edition of the Charles Dickens Library, featuring both Oliver Twist and A Child’s History.
The original pages remain intact at the front, preserving the story’s history before leading you to the secret hollowed-out compartment. This compartment features a printed Oliver Twist illustration taken from the book.
Book measurements: 12.8cm wide x 19.4cm length x 4.2cm depth
Inside safe: 9.3cm wide x 15.6cm height x 3.4cm depth
Title: Charles Dickens Library
This piece is not just hidden storage; it’s literary art, a keepsake for someone who loves stories deeply. Use it to hide jewellery, love notes, letters, keys, money or a passport. It sits naturally among other books, blending into a bookshelf, coffee table, bedside or in a reading nook.
Every book safe I create is one-of-a-kind. I carefully hand-select books based on character, condition, cover design and the emotions they evoke. Each one is hollowed, reinforced and lined by hand in my Inner West Sydney studio.
A beautiful gift for:
Classic literature lovers
Victorian era enthusiasts
Readers who collect Dickens
Those who love decor with history and personality
A book you display because you love the story - and a secret space only you know about.
