About the Item

Napoleon III style bookcase, originally used to store sheet music. Characteristic of the style, the ebonized wood finely carved uprights make this narrow, tall piece easy to install in a confined space. It sits on casters, making it easy to put it back in place after music lessons. The piece dates from the 1900s and already has a history, as its condition is used, giving it the charm of the past. Ideal as a small cabinet of curiosities in a living room or office. The photos and video accurately describe the condition of the piece.
