Read moreBeautiful Victorian Glazed Bookcase / Dresser in Oak
£0FREE Shipping on this piece. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A very stylish late 19th Century Victorian glazed dresser / bookcase in original oak finish. It dates from around 1880 to 1900 and has original cabinetry, glass, beautifully ornate handles, lock and key. We fully cleaned and gently restored the whole exterior then repainted the top internal section with Farrow & Ball Wevet colour paint. This has given the piece the mix of antique, rustic and contemporary. It is very stylish, subtle in design and very flexible in the colours – to match a vast array of room palletes. The colour is superb having aged beautifully over the last 120 years+.
We think it would also make a fantastic and individual kitchen / diner cabinet or a bookcase/ dresser. The piece splits in to two sections for ease of transportation and siting. The bookcase stands at 214cm tall so please check your ceiling heights carefully before purchasing. This is an impressive size that will certainly commands lots of attention.
Superb original antique chic charm with a very contemporary slant.
