An excellent example of an original mid century glazed bookcase, produced by Staverton in the 1950’s and 60’s. This one is clearly stamped 1962 on the back to date it accurately (please see photographs). It is produced from high quality radial cut English oak and oak veneer with ply internals and section dividers. All of the glass is complete with no cracks. The condition is excellent for the year. It has been gently and sympathetically brought back to its best by us, without over restoring and stripping all of the patina and character away. It is in exceptional condition for the age with beautiful colour and natural patina. Two of the pigeon holes do have some stains that could not be removed. Please see photographs. Clearly these can be covered to hide the stains but we have to show them for honesty and transparency.
With it’s simple lines, quality of oak and carpentry it is a beautiful vintage classic. These glazed Staverton bookcases are pretty rare now. Our pricing research could only find one other for sale at £1399 plus delivery costs.
Clean lines and mid century styling that makes a real statement. A beautiful quality piece that will only appreciate in value if looked after. With such versatility it can be used in almost any room you choose and styled exactly how you like it.
