Monumental Antique English Chippendale Carved Walnut Breakfront with Provenance
Located in Swedesboro, NJ
This is a truly irreplaceable piece of furniture with provenance and history. This truly masterfully done Chippendale style 1880s era English breakfront or bookcase. The bookcase measures an imposing 123 3/4" h x 146 1/4" w x 24" d and certainly isn't for every home. In fact, if you look at where it was, it looks to be of normal size. The piece was purchased for the Philadelphia landmark luxury condominium that was built in 1963 and is directly across the Philadelphia Museum of art. If you aren't familiar with this fantastic museum, you may be familiar with the movie "Rocky" as he ran up the steps and had a flock of admiring children following him. That's the museum! The breakfront is made of solid walnut and will show minor signs of age and use, some locks are missing and we will replace panes of glass that have old cracks in them and a few moldings that need to be done in order to be completed which we will do for you. The lower middle right center drawer is slightly warped as often happens in antiques from Europe...

Large Late Regency Six Door Mahogany Bookcase Attributed to Gillows
Located in Lymington, Hampshire
A large and impressive late Regency six door mahogany bookcase attributed to Gillows, the upper section with a triple breakfront cornice above glazed doors with brass diamond trellis grilles, each enclosing adjustable shelves, the base with panelled cupboards decorated with book-matched flame veneers between turned columns with palmette terminals. English, circa 1815. Footnote. A double Breakfront Library Bookcase Attributed to Gillows of Lancaster, c.1820 The bookcase of large form but of elegant proportions, having a pleasing low waist, always desirable on case furniture of this sort, brass grilles, a plinth base veneered in the finest mahogany and intriguing inlaid quatrefoil shaped escutcheons to the central doors. Designed in the early 19th century “Roman” fashion, this bookcase is one of a small group of such pieces that have been linked in the past to designs provided by the Wyatt family of architects (see for example a bookcase of remarkably similar form offered by Christie’s in London on the 16th of December 2010 with an estimate of £40-£60,000). Although any link with Wyatt must remain purely speculative, the attribution of this bookcase to the firm of Gillows of Lancaster can be made with a much higher degree of confidence. This attribution is based partly on a fine suite of similar library bookcases supplied to Tatton Park and discussed in detail by Dr. Susan Stuart in Gillows of Lancaster and London 1730-1840, page 375-377, plates 443 & 444. Of even greater interest is a design for a complete...

English 1880s Black and Gold Breakfront Two Part Bookcase with Chinoiserie Décor
Located in Atlanta, GA
An English two part black and gold breakfront bookcase from the late 19th century with Chinoiserie décor, gilded Greek Key and floral décor, chicken wire doors, drawers and additional wooden doors. Created in England during the last quarter of the 19th century, this tall bookcase attracts immediately our attention with its tall proportions and stunning black and gold colors. Made of two parts, this breakfront bookcase is adorned with a molded cornice with carved dentil molding and a gilded Greek Key frieze, sitting above four doors presenting chicken wire. These doors open to a light painted interior with convenient shelves. The lower section, decorated with an exquisite Chinoiserie décor, is made of three drawers followed by four doors with red lacquered interior. Peaceful and traditional scenes present Chinese figures in landscapes and architectures, engaged in their daily occupations: crossing a narrow bridge, horse riding, net fishing, one can imagine the serenity of such a life. The sides are also adorned with lovely foliage and the back is plain. With its breakfront lines and skillfully executed décor, this English Chinoiserie bookcase...
