This is a handsome and very good quality antique bookcase with attractive burr walnut veneers. The bookcase stands 6 foot 7 inches high, comprising of a glazed top with arched paneled doors enclosing 3 adjustable shelves and cupboard base. The cornice has a concave moulding below which is the glazed top with arched paneled doors enclosing 3 adjustable shelves. The central section has an attractive and unusual carved egg and lounge boarder. The bookcase has working locks and keys.

The base has a pair of doors which are beautifully decorated with matched quartered veneers giving a very decorative finish to the piece.*

The bookcase has lovely rounded corners to the edges and plainer veneers to the sides. It is in good original condition without much evidence of restoration. As can be seen from the photographs it has an attractive honey coloured patina which would blend in easily with other lighter contemporary pieces of furniture as well as with other traditional antique settings.

The bookcase has been made in four sections; a cornice, a glazed cabinet, a central base and a lower enclosed cupboard, which enables ease of installation.
