This stately bookcase is a masterpiece of French sculpture, with glorious relief carvings from crown to base depicting symbols of art, science, music, and cartography. Created from select French walnut, it features elegant neo-classic lines including a step-front center section that is also raised above the side cabinets for visual appeal from all angles. This architecture makes it suitable as the centerpiece for any space. The beveled and arched glazing allows one to perfectly display one's most cherished heirlooms, while the lavishly carved panels below allow one to store items in a more discreet manner. Mitered and fluted cornerposts add a special touch. Discovered in the condition you see before you, all that was required of our expert in-house restoration staff was the application of a hand-rubbed wax finish to rejuvenate the master work, readying it for its next century of majesty!
Circa 1880s.
Measures 100.5 x 75 x 22.
