Victorian Mahogany Breakfront Bookcase

19th century

Sold by Sinclairs Antiques and Interiors

Description

This magnificent Victorian breakfront bookcase is crafted from stunning rich mahogany and can be easily separated into three sections: a beautifully shaped cornice, a four-door bookcase, and a four-door base, making transportation a breeze.

The bookcase features four glazed doors with elegant arched mouldings, opening to reveal four long and eight short, fully adjustable shelves. Four of these shelves have been replaced over time. The material covering the back panels has some fading, but this can be replaced with ease if desired. Nevertheless, it adds to the charm and character of this stunning piece.

Each of the three cupboards in the base includes a single fully adjustable shelf and panelled doors. The quality of the mahogany veneer is outstanding, showcasing true craftsmanship. Whether you're storing books or displaying treasured items, they will never look better than when housed in this remarkable piece of history.
