We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

This Arts and Crafts bookcase is constructed from dark brown oak and features central glazed double doors with leaded glass panes. Straight square framing encloses the central compartment, which is flanked by open side shelving on both the left and right sides. The top surface incorporates a raised gallery with a low retaining timber rail along the back and sides. Metal keyhole escutcheons and small drop handles are mounted centrally on the door stiles. The timber displays a warm brown tone with visible grain patterns across the flat surfaces. Measuring 120 cm high, 143 cm wide, and 27 cm deep, the unit provides compact storage capacity suitable for a home study, library, or living room. The open side tiers and internal shelving accommodate books or decorative objects, while the glazed doors protect volumes from dust. Mild signs of use are present on the exterior woodwork, reflecting its 1910 period origins without compromising structural integrity or everyday utility.

FAQs

Arts and Crafts furniture is defined by honest construction, utility, exposed joinery, and clean structural lines, emerging as a reaction against mass industrialisation during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

These bookcases predominantly feature solid oak, quarter-sawn timber, clear or textured leaded glass panels, and hand-wrought iron or copper hardware.

Authentic pieces exhibit visible mortise and tenon joinery, hand-finished oak surface texture, original leaded glass glazing, and occasionally maker stamps or labels from prominent design houses like Liberty & Co.

Position the piece against neutral painted walls to highlight dark wood tones, arranging a balance of bound books, studio ceramics, and minimalist glass objects across the open and glazed shelving.

Dust surfaces using a clean microfibre cloth, apply beeswax along the timber grain once a year, and clean leaded glass panes carefully with distilled water to avoid destabilising the lead cames.
