Victorian Oak Glazed 2 Part Bookcase

19th century

Sold by Prior and Willis

Description

Victorian C1890 oak glazed 2 part bookcase.

Solid and strong, with no loose joints. A lovely quality piece. We have keys.

Would look great in the right location! The corner panes of each door are cranberry glass. There are some subtle differences between the top and bottom halves...it is believed that the two halves came together in C1900 when they were reglazed to form one large piece to good effect.

Overall maximum dimensions: 97cm wide, 38.5cm deep, 193cm high (98cm high base plus 95cm high top). Top part shelves: Bottom, 86cm wide, 29cm deep (30.5cm space above), middle 86cm wide, 29cm deep (25cm space above), top 86cm wide, 29cm deep (22cm space above).

The top shelves are fixed, however those in the bottom are held up by pinned side supports, which could be repositioned to suit a customer's preference.

A few historic extinct woodworm holes that have been treated for good measure.
