It opens with three doors in mahogany veneer, glazed on three quarters of their surfaces. Their low parts are full, with back panels worked in four -leaf frieze. Each of these doors has a chopped brass lock entrance, its key and they lock independently. The middle leaf, wider than the other two, sees its high angles cut into "Greek corners" and embellished with two brass flowers. The interior of this library is garnished with three shelves 32 cm deep, placed on racks and therefore adjustable at will on a total storage height of 125 cm.
The upper crosspower is decorated with a generous bronze cut in the succession of oval and foliage and four falls of the same alloy embellish the upper ends of the amounts of this piece of furniture.
The whole rests on four bundled feet at the front and two straight feet at the rear.
In addition to the interesting dimensions of this glass library, we will also appreciate its elegance and sobriety.
