This antique Regency style mahogany bookcase is very impressive & has a lot of style. Take a good look at all of the amazing features & enlarge all of the images to appreciate the quality. The astral glazing on the top doors is very striking. Behind these doors are adjustable shelves. The bottom cupboards have wonderful mouldings & there are two more shelves inside this part. Beneath this there is a shaped base & splayed feet. This very elegant bookcase is in good original condition & has working locks on the doors. There is a small piece of wood missing on the side of one of the feet, but that is hardly noticeable & all part of the character. I would say it dates to around the 1910-30's period, but it is really difficult to date exactly because it's a bit of a one off.

To look at, you would think this bookcase is totally original, because of the way it's are constructed. I do have other similar ones & matching smaller pairs also, so please check my other items. These bookcases are exceptional quality & are not easy to get hold of because of the scarcity of decent old wood. Also, because of their popularity, I have been getting them made to order.

This antique Georgian style concave fronted mahogany bookcase has a great look & is good quality too. It has a dental moulding at the top, good carvings, astral glazed top cupboards with shelving inside. The bottom cupboards are flame mahogany & are slightly deeper inside. What's especially nice about this piece is that it's not too high & it doesn't have to be used only for books. It's in good original condition, with plenty of character & I would say it dates to around the 1930-50's period. By the way, this bookcase is curved in on the front & flat on the back.
