Mid 19th century inlaid breakfront bookcase circa 1847.
Beautiful bookcase with Regency and Sheraton influences.
Comprising of 4 sections of the base, central glazed cupboard and 2 flanking glazed side cupboards.
Break fronted shape, with a central inlaid pediment and applied brass eagle, further inlay and moulding around the cornice. Astral glazed door fronts contain the original glass and contain an extremely rare etched initial and date of 1847 on one of the panels. Working locks allow access to the 3 fully adjustable shelves in each compartment. Lower cupboard base with inset oval panels and strung border, open to a single fixed shelf each side and an open storage space with no shelf in the middle. All raised on a plinth base.
Much has been done to keep this bookcase in original condition, with woodwork restoration and a hand-polished finish. 1 area of a burn mark to the side of the middle lower cupboard. Surface marks and fading.
