19th Century French Henri II Neoclassical Open Bookcase features a tastefully tailored design, inspired by ancient Greek and Roman architecture!  The crown provides almost all the style cues, with bold molding, pyramidal blocks and fluted corbels atop the cornerposts, each of which are also fluted all the way down to the boldly molded base.  Turned bun feet provide support.  The versatility and brilliance of the design is in the six adjustable shelves which combine with the floorplate to create 7 surfaces upon which one can store or decorate anything you so desire!  Hand-crafted from dense, old-growth oak, its shallow design provides a minimal impact on the floor plan and is the perfect way to cover an otherwise nondescript wall.
Circa 1890s
