Georgian Oak Bureau Bookcase
A very charming 18th century George III oak bureau cabinet/bookcase.
c1770.
The bureau section has a fall-front which is decorated with a delightful feather banded oval to the front, using ebony and boxwood. The front opens to reveal a very charming fitted interior, with an arrangement of several pigeon hole compartments, over six small drawers, having a pretty central cupboard door, with boxwood stringing inlaid decoration. This is over a chest of five drawers, having to short drawers over three graduating drawers. Of dove-tail construction and oak lined.
The top section has two doors having fielded panelled fronts, with very ornate brass escutcheons to each door. With a moulded cornice above. The doors open to reveal a three adjustable shelved interior, making it possible to house books of varying sizes easily. Below the doors are two very charming original slide-out candle stands.
The bookcase has developed a wonderful rich colour and characterful patina, which simply glows.
Standing on ogee bracket feet.
The condition is excellent antique condition, having general signs of use consistent with age. Some very minor historical repairs to the front of a couple of the drawers.The brasses to the drawers are re-placements, but are stylistically correct. Original finish, bees waxed and polished. The top can be removed from the bureau section. A new green leather has been to the bureau writing surface, since taking the pictures.
