A comfortable living room, study, or reading room benefits from furniture that offers both display space and practical storage. This glazed mahogany bookcase provides an elegant home for books, ornaments, and collectables, while its classic proportions make it easy to incorporate into both traditional and modern interiors. The bookcase features a pair of glazed doors, allowing the contents to remain visible while offering protection from dust. Decorative moulded detailing and shaped cabriole-style feet add character, while the warm mahogany frame complements the lighter-toned oak shelves within. The shelves are adjustable, providing flexibility for storing items of different heights. The doors are fitted with a lock, and the key is present and in full working order. The previous finish has been stripped, and multiple coats of hard-wearing lacquer have been applied, creating a durable, long-lasting finish while enhancing the natural grain and colour variation of the timber. As shown in the photographs, there are several historical repairs and age-related markings, including old filled repairs, surface marks, and signs of wear consistent with the bookcase's age and use. These features do not detract from its functionality and instead contribute to its authentic character and history. The item is made from mahogany, with oak shelves and a plywood back. With its useful adjustable storage, attractive glazed frontage, and traditional craftsmanship, this bookcase is a practical and characterful piece. Its combination of display potential and period charm makes it an appealing addition to a wide range of homes.[dimensions][w]97[/w][h]124[/h][d]31[/d][/dimensions]
