This bookcase will be broken down into 12 pieces for transport (2 doors, 2 sides, 2 back panels, crown, base, and 4 shelves). Please note that this bookcase is wearing its original finish from 1850 therefore there will be wear to the finish as shown in the eBay photos.

 

The gorgeous removable top crown has dovetailed construction and is graced with flame mahogany and sits upon the sides and back which also has chamfered construction. Next, the beauty continues in the design detail of the bookcase doors.  These gorgeous doors are adorned with elegant Gothic trefoil fretwork and each door has three separate glass panels.

Four adjustable shelves are found behind these elegant doors.  Storage opportunity is found in the two handsome bottom flame mahogany dovetailed drawers that are graced with fancy ribbon moulding and heavy brass hardware.  Finally, this handsome Early Victorian Empire Tall Original Finish Step-back Flame Mahogany Bookcase Gothic Bookcase is completed with lovely undulating scrolled skirt detail around the bottom and with castors on the feet for ease of movement.

 

This handsome Early Victorian Empire Tall Original Finish Step-back Flame Mahogany Bookcase Gothic Bookcase with 2 Drawer Base (Circa: 1850) has a lovely old original finish and is in very nice condition for its age with wear as one would expect from pieces wearing their original finish which only adds to the charm and character of the piece.  It would be a lovely addition to any room of your home or office and will provide ample storage and display opportunity for your special books or collectibles.  Don’t miss out on the opportunity to own and enjoy this special bookcase.  You can find Victorian bookcases, but most of them are not as tall as this one and many of them no longer have their original finish. This one is absolutely fabulous!
