Atropos Antiques has dated this piece to the 1800s.
It has been with me since then and I have now decided to sell due to a space issue.
The quality of the carving and the standard of cabinet making is exceedingly high and the piece has had no intervention or drastic restoration which is always an advantage with period furniture. The decorated panels are carved back from solid, a remarkable feat in itself!
The convenient size of this item makes it highly 'usable' in any surrounding, height 70.5 inches, width 44 inches, front to back at deepest point of the base 17 inches. Bookcase top 11 inches from front to back.
I include a detail picture and description of a very similar piece from an auction which took place in 1992 for reference.
The bookcase top is removable from the base which makes access very easy. The slides are adjustable and the lock and key work efficiently.
All questions are welcome and delivery is available as usual on this item.
A beautiful and genuine piece of period furniture that I will miss tremendously.
