About the Item
This French bookcase from the late 19th century makes a dramatic statement by its scale alone, and the crackled texture of the paint gives it visual intrigue to anchor any kitchen, dining room, library, or office. Below an understated cornice, four tall, narrow glass-front doors of the bookcase provide visibility to regard the contents on three shelves (approximately 16” deep) which are stationary. Note doors are paired so the second and fourth doors contain the locks while the first and third doors use a slide-bolt for security. Most of the panes exhibit the unmistakable wavy surface and bubbles of antique glass, and a few are replacements. In subtle contrast to the chalky exterior, the back and shelves of the interior have been painted an ethereal blue-gray to further illuminate and highlight the contents. The lower section of the unit offers an undivided cabinet for (less visible) storage and organization, behind two pairs of locking doors. The stationary shelf inside is 16” deep, spanning the full width of the interior. Cleaned, tightened and polished, this monumental storage piece is ready to astound in your interior. Please view the detailed images to see more. Two keys included to share between the four working locks.
