Pair of Antique Bookcases Display Cabinets Painted Light Gray

About the Item

These exceptional bookcases are a tremendous find as it is difficult to find a matching pair. The professionally applied (newer) light gray and white layered paint is perfectly distressed to fit with the age and character of the pair leaving an overall soft dove gray finish. One notices the symmetry and balance of the styling in the glass panels and heavy panel along the base of each cabinet. In photos, you will see the adjustable shelving system making them ideal for display. They have been restored, are sturdy and ready to use.
