Description

Antique Rosewood Breakfront Bookcase / Display Cabinet.

This is a magnificent Rosewood Display Cabinet of exceptional quality and craftsmanship.
It dates to Regency period, about 1830

The piece is beautifully proportioned, and of medium height, designed to offer the best possible display of its contents.

Standing at just over 5 feet tall, this is a perfect height for viewing, and the 3 full length glazed doors, without glazing bars, ensure that pieces can be displayed well and seen clearly.

It has a wide and deep central section and narrower side compartments to either side. Each of these are fitted with fully adjustable shelves. Photos shown here are with 3 shelves to each compartment, and there are 3 further shelves also. They are all original and faced in solid rosewood.

There are 3 deep drawers below, each with their original dovetailed pine linings and turned rosewood knobs.

The breakfront cornice, being at eye level, is flat topped and beautifully finished in polished rosewood with a fine cross grained rounded edge border. It can be used for display also.

The case dismantles easily for transportation. The cornice lifts off, and the doors lift out on their pin hinges. The side sections can be unscrewed and removed if necessary.
