A very practical and fun design, this square revolving bookcase would have been made in England circa 1870 using solid mahogany.

The clean lines would work well in nearly any interior decoration style, and accommodate a variety of collections.

A lovely French transitional bedside table topped with gray marble in a brass gallery surround, this petite occasional table is adaptable to both bedrooms and living spaces. The stone is marbleized with dense veins of white and dark gray to painterly effect, enclosed on three sides by a pierced brass gallery. Note there are some minor chips on the front–see the image gallery for more information. Below is a locking, shallow drawer opened by tiny brass ring pulls, accented with brass trim that is repeated on the side panels. Fluting on the corners transitions to four, smooth legs supporting a lower shelf for additional storage and display surface area. Cleaned and polished with a French paste wax, this charming occasional table is ready to join your interior. Please view the detailed images to see more. One key included.
