Description:
Here is a superb exhibition quality antique Edwardian flame mahogany bookcase, in the style of the neo-classical Georgian period, made by the renowned cabinetmakers, S&H Jewell of London, circa 1900, in excellent original condition. This bookcase comprises a carved ed protruding cornice, with a glazed cabinet top and cupboard base below. The top of the cabinet boasts a shaped cornice with ed carvings. Below is a glazed shelved cabinet. The glazed doors boast decorative astragal beading, with all doors retaining the original brass drop handle latches, with the original working locks (with key). The inside of the cabinet is divided into three shelved sections, with a total of nine height adjustable / removable shelves. The cabinet rests on a cupboard base. The top of the base features three fully working mahogany lined drawers, which have brass swan neck handles on round escutcheons. There is a plaque affixed to the inside of the central drawer, which reads “S&H Jewell Est. 1830. 26 Parker Street, London W.C.2”. The drawers also boast hand dovetailing and quarter beading (a sign of quality). Below is a triple compartment cupboard with three fielded panel doors. All three doors retain their original brass drop handle latches and original working locks. Each compartment within the cupboard section is divided into 2 tiers. The bookcase retains the original key, which operates all doors. You can tell that the bookcase has been constructed to the highest standard when you open and close the glass doors, the joints between the doors and carcass are of the smallest tolerances. The base rests on its original moulded plinth. The bookcase dismantles into three sections – cornice, glazed cabinet and cupboard base – for ease of transportation and access.
