About the Item

Doors are hung with hinges positioned for wide opening, revealing four adjustable shelves for 5 surfaces of storage within. Exuding understated elegance, the bookcase displays a finely molded crown, corbel style braces on the feet below, pegged mortise & tenon joinery throughout, and a handsome key guard in hand-forged steel. The painted finish combines a whitewashed effect with a subtle distressed appearance for a truly memorable impression! Circa 1880s Measures 87H x 57W x 18.5D
