French Henri Rapin Arts and Crafts Bookcase in Oak

About the Item

Absolutely stunning and unique French Arts and Crafts cabinet by Henri Rapin, a prominent French designer of the period. Constructed in solid quarter-sawn oak, this massive piece features panelled doors with bold hammered metalwork and embossed leather panels. Beautiful satin birch interior secondary wood. Carved shaped finials to the top and the fluid simple geometry of the Arts and Crafts style throughout. A very rare piece in remarkable original condition. Also available is a writing table and matching chair by the same designer. A very rare opportunity for the collector of Arts and Crafts furniture. A smaller version of this bookcase can be seen in the 'Louvre'
