French 19th Century Louis Philippe Massive Bibliotheque
-
Description
A towering, 19th century French Louis Philippe style bibliothèque or bookcase, handcrafted of mahogany with three glass-front doors for displaying treasured books, heirlooms, or trophies in an office or library. The clean, straight lines with angled corners allow this timeless design to fit any number of traditional and transitional decorating tastes. Original glass panes are texturized by waves and small bubbles that complement the animated striations in the mahogany wood grain. Behind the locking doors are six interior shelves (11 ½” deep) that are adjustable on sawtooth brackets to easily reconfigure as needed. The left and center doors function together, representing one, wide vitrine whereas the right side is separate. Below are a series of three doors enclosing the lower cabinet that follow the order of the upper body: left and center doors work in tandem by a lock & key while the right side is separate. Both compartments have an adjustable shelf, approximately 17” deep. Note the lower right door does not have a lock, needing the shared key to pull open. This striking storage piece has been cleaned and polished with a French paste wax to bring out the rich grain pattern and historic patina, ready for your interior. There is one small crack in the glass of the left-side upper cabinet, bottom left corner, which is mostly concealed by the frame holding the pane securely in place. Please view the detailed images. Three keys included.
