- Handsome Victorian Walnut Glazed Bookcase C1890
Handsome Victorian Walnut Glazed Bookcase C1890
This one came with an old label attached to the inside of one of the doors “This bookcase is for The Library, The University, Edmund Street, Birmingham, Date June 1927 From L M Lewis” not a bad pedigree for a bookcase! It’s a good looking piece with sensible and careful wear making it perfect for a living room or kitchen/diner. Plenty of space in the top and lower halves. The top possesses three shelves and the lower cupboard doors hides another. Both lower and upper halves have full working locks with keys – always a nice addition.
Workshop report – The bookcase is in good order and possesses a good glow to the walnut. The doors are closing as they should with locks working. There are no cracks or repairs to the glazing and it sits firm with no repairs or faults apart from sensible day to day wear. We have ensured the piece is ready to place. It comes in two pieces to make life a little easier for placing.
A handsome looking bookcase with a nice little bit of history.
Dimensions - Overall: Height 219cm with Surface 93.5cm x Width 104cm x Depth 46cm
