An Edwardian inlaid mahogany bookcase on cabinet, the upper section with moulded and dentil cornice, the shelved interior enclosed by astragal glazed panelled doors, the base fitted a cupboard enclosed by a panelled door, raised on a platform base 44" SOLD £880

The bookcase does have adjustable shelves and a panelled back. There is one pane of broken glass to the left hand door. There is a key present but this does not turn in either the top or bottom lock. The base is missing the escutcheon to the lock and the tops of the doors are very dirty. There are numerous small contact marks from everyday use but no real damage.
