This bookshelf and secretaire features a walnut frame with nickel-plated brass handles and black varnished metal feet, which are not original. As a matter of fact, the previous owner changed them with quite coherent and taller ones to make it easier to clean under it.
This cabinet may show slight traces of use since it's vintage, but it can be considered as in excellent original condition and ready to become a piece in a home.

Measures:
width 80 cm
depth (closed) 43 cm
depth (doors open) 66 cm
depth (secrétaire top open) 32 cm
feet height: 18 cm
