Unusual and very decorative mid 18th century George II walnut glazed bureau bookcase on stand in walnut with stringing and a fabulous interior.
Being a bureau on stand, this piece has a much lighter feel with the shaped legs and serpentine frieze along with the walnut.
The glazed bookcase 3 fully adjustable shelves plus the bottom surface offers a good amount of storage or space for display.
The bureau interior has secret compartments, shaped drawers and a working lock and key. The green baize is worn as you can see but I can replace this for you in a baize colour of your choice if you would prefer, so please get in touch for options.
Good solid condition and no problem to arrange delivery for you.
