An Edwardian Revolving Bookcase by Maples & Co. Of London & Paris

1900 - 1920
Sold by Culvertons
Description

A fine example of a mahogany revolving bookcase by Maples & Co, one of the leading manufacturers from the Edwardian Period (1901 - 1910). This bookcase has been well designed and expertly constructed - it's robust yet decorative four- legged base (still supported by its original porcelain wheeled castors) and cast iron under-tier enables it to be easily spun around whilst it's shelves are full of heavy books. The mahogany has been skilfully decorated with satinwood and boxwood inlay to evoke the fashionable designs of the Late 18th Century or 'Age of Elegance' - many Edwardian interiors were decorated in this manner. Now sensitively restored this revolving bookcase is ready to be used and enjoyed.

Dealers Notes

Whenever possible Culvertons undertake the carriage of items within London and the home counties. Professional, competitive and trusted couriers and shipping companies are engaged for deliveries for the remainder of our customers. Smaller items, when instructed, will be carefully parcelled and securely sent by the carrier.

We strive to accurately describe and illustrate our stock on the 'Selling Antiques' website. However, we understand that it is not always possible to judge from photographs how an item will look in the home or garden. For this reason, if notified within seven days from the date of delivery we offer a full refund (less any agreed carriage costs) once the item has been returned in the same condition as it left our premises.
