19th Century French Louis Philippe Rosewood Bookcase

About the Item

19th Century French Louis Philippe Rosewood Bookcase is the perfect choice for those with a special collection, prized family heirlooms, or for your library of books!

This example exhibits a traditional style relying on the sheer natural beauty of the exotic wood and expert molding detail which conveys understated elegance. It features a bold chapeau de gendarme cornice, mitered corners with finely turned and carved half columns framing the doors, and classic tailored lines allowing it to work with a huge variety of styles and tastes.
