circa: 1890 width: 40 height: 72.5 length: 19.5 This stunning antique carved oak bookcase was made in England. The base appears to be older, made around 1820, and the top around the end of the 19th century. The entire piece is intricately hand carved oak with a wonderful patina. The glass door locks as well as the cabinet door at the bottom, and each has their own key. The bookcase top is unique in that each of the carved decorations on the shelves will flip up to allow you to store things that are the maximum height of the shelves. Each shelf or cubby measures 9''x9''x9''. The glass section in the middle has two stationary shelves that are affixed inside. The drawer is wide and has plenty of storage space. It is dovetailed, and does show signs of repair to the wooden runners. It slides in and out perfectly. The condition of this bookcase is very good. It has an age split to one of the decorations on the left side, a repair to the front right corner, and a repaired dent to the carved cornice. This bookcase is extremely sturdy and well built, and sure to last for generations to come!
