This "one-off" exhibition piece can be reproduced in the timber of your choice.
The joinery in this bookcase is a reproduction of the 1860's period with the exception of the modern glue used in the construction.

All shelves are adjustable, sitting on a sawtooth system.

The carved columns on either side are reeded with a Tudor rose carving top and bottom.
The columns have been designed to take a pair of glass doors if required.
Finish is one coat of shellac, three coats of lacquer before buffing with wax.
