Victorian Oak Breakfront Bookcase Carved Miskin Manor 1870 Library

About the Item

You are viewing a gorgeous monumental carved Victorian library bookcase of breakfront form The bookcase is circa 1870 and was sourced from Miskin Manor - a Stately home in South Wales (please scroll through for photos of this originally in situ) The scale of this important piece is phenomenal and the top part comes in 4 sections. The Base comes in 4 sections, also comes with Original Keys The carving - believed to be craftsman from the Warwick School - is so well executed as hopefully the photos illustrate Features include elaborate panels with floral motifs, dogs heads, grotesque masks, rosettes, male caryatids and an eagle motif to centre top It really is a detailed and quality work of art we are excited to bring to market Pictures attached of Miskin Manor with the Bookcase visible.
