Vintage two-door stripped solid oak bookcase by Piet Rombouts & Sons, 1960s

About the Item

On offer here is a timeless two-door oak cupboard, meticulously crafted from reclaimed oak wood dating back to the 1960s. This unique piece was built by the esteemed Piet Rombouts & Sons furniture workshop, a legacy proudly continued by our family. The wood was sourced from very old German half-timbered houses and shows a remarkable grain pattern and worn surface. The wood was brought to the workshop in Zeelst, the Netherlands, and the most beautiful furniture was composed of this wood. Boasting a clean, timeless design with robust forged hinges, key plates, and locks, this bookcase exemplifies traditional craftsmanship. The visible wooden peg joints, each expertly carved into diamond-shaped heads, attest to its meticulous construction. The bookcase is fitted with two sturdy fixed shelves. The whole piece was gently stripped from its lacquer and stain and now shows the bare naturally stripped wood. The bookcase was gently cleaned and is solid and ready for use.
