About the Item

Stunning vintage oak book rack by Robert Thompson (also known as mouseman) from the 1960's. A simple and beautiful rack with the characteristic carved mouse signature. Robert "Mouseman" Thompson was a renowned English furniture maker, born in 1876, who gained fame for his distinctive handcrafted oak furniture adorned with signature mouse carvings. Working in the Arts and Crafts tradition, Thompson's pieces often featured simple, rustic designs, showcasing the natural beauty of the wood. The distinctive mouse carvings became his trademark, symbolizing his meticulous craftsmanship. Each piece bore a small mouse carved into the wood, adding a whimsical touch to his creations. Thompson's legacy continues through the thriving business he founded, now managed by his descendants, producing sought-after Mouseman furniture that remains highly collectible for its craftsmanship and unique charm
