It was listed by D and A Binder Ltd. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

A stylish and decorative antique countertop display shelving unit dating from the early 20th century, featuring 2 tier glass shelves supported by brass uprights with turned finial.

The shelving is constructed with thick glass shelves held within a brass framework, with adjustable brass thumb screws and decorative cast brass base mounts. The design makes this unit particularly well suited for the display jewellery, perfumes, small collectibles, or luxury retail merchandise.

The rich patinated brass has acquired a wonderful aged character over time, enhancing the clean lines of the glass and creating a light appearance. The turned finials and traditional brass fittings boost the piece beyond a purely functional shop fitting, giving it a decorative appeal.

Originally intended for use on a shop counter this piece would work equally well in a retail environment, dressing room, bathroom, or private collection display.

Brass and glass display shelving gained prominence during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, primarily utilised in high-end retail shops and apothecaries to showcase merchandise clearly to customers.

Authentic period units typically feature heavy cast or extruded brass frames, brackets, and upright pillars combined with thick, flat glass plates or panels.

Authentication involves examining the composition of the metal for natural oxidisation, checking for hand-finished casting irregularities, and inspecting the glass for period-typical imperfections or edge-working.

In modern spaces, these units function effectively on sideboards or console tables to display collections of glassware, ceramics, or small sculptures without visual bulk.

Glass should be cleaned with standard non-ammonia window cleaner, while brass components require dusting with a soft cloth and should avoid harsh chemical polishes to preserve the patination.
