1950-1960’s Mid-Century Modern Low Mahogany Bookcase with Slanted Display Shelf

About the Item

Wonderful Mid-Century Modern low Mahogany bookcase w/slanted top display shelf. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1950-1960’s. SPECTACULAR in its simplicity…. (insert whistle!) You know, there are some things that are just no-nonsense, no frills, and don’t require a bunch of jibber jabber to describe… THIS is that piece!! Not that it isn’t WORTHY of mindless chatter and continuous blabbing but let’s just be real folks… It IS what it IS!!! This is a WONDERFUL mahogany bookcase featuring a slanted top shelf marvelous for book or magazine displaying and two lower shelves convenient for your book collection, smaller decorative items, media, or décor of your choice. At 36 inches high it is a bit more of a petite or lower bookcase so it would be perfect in a children’s bedroom, grade or preschool setting, home library, sitting or art room, or in your study. And although it is Mid-Century Modern in style it is versatile enough to blend in beautifully with almost ANY style décor. I mean, I could go ON and ON and ON with the Blah, Blah, Blah boasting on this beauty but like I said before, it IS what it IS… and it IS INCREDIBLE, to say the least!!! I’m just going to tell it like it is… It’s SIMPLE… It NEEDS to be YOURS!!!
