Antique French Bookcase or Cabinet in Limed White Oak Older Restoration c1800's

About the Item

Antique French Limed Oak Cabinet, of massive proportions. We seldom, if ever, find a genuine Antique French, circa 1800s Cabinet, of such grandeur. Our Old Plank workshop, completely disassembled and rebuilt all the joints, before the Antique French Cabinet, was sent into the finishing department. The Liming process alone, required almost 300 hours of highly skilled labor, to complete the transformation of this Antique French Bookcase. Fully adjustable shelves, with wooden peg construction. The Limed finish, actually looks like it was done decades ago and it might be best described as a, "dirty old limed finish", for all to often, they end up looking like nothing more than bleached wood. The Antique French Cabinet or Bookcase, has a wonderful and natural looking patina. Measures: 12' long.

  • French Louis XVI Style Ebonized Mahogany Bookcase, Armoire Restored c1800's
    Located in Chicago, IL
    Antique French Louis XVI Style Bookcase, or if you prefer, Antique French Ebonized Bibliotheque made from solid mahogany over 100-years ago to a very high standard. We have had our share of antique, or supposed to be Antique French mahogany Louis XVI style bookcases, however most tend to be constructed during the 1950’s. This Antique French Ebonized Bookcase is the real deal and is a genuine antique, which our inhouse Old Plank restoration department beautifully restored, with an old school ebonized finish. The French Louis XVI bookcase was completely disassembled (makes for easy ingress and egress), hand-stripped to the bare mahogany wood, restored as necessary and refinished in this deep black Napoleon III style ebonized and brass exterior. One can only imagine what the house must have looked like, or maybe I should have said chateau, where this elegant Antique Louis XVI Bookcase...
