19th Century French Louis Philippe Period Petite Bookcase ~ Vitrine will make a splendid vehicle to display your collection, books, or objets d'art!  With full length glass sides and glass panels on the doors, it allows maximum ambient light in negating the need for interior wiring.  Hand-crafted entirely from dense yellow pine, it has been allowed to naturally age without stain, yet features a subtle finish that gives it a special glow, with a soft appearance perfect for casual decors.  Multiple shelves allow for displaying a wide variety of keepsakes.  The classic austerity of the design includes a serpentine crown molding contrasting with tailored casework and base molding, with stepped feet for a sturdy support.  Note the chamfered solid pine planks of the back side, a sure indicator of quality designed to last for generations!
