Dimensions: 97 ⅜” H x 97 ½” W x 20” D
This English bookcase from the late 19th century (or early 1900s) makes a dramatic statement for any interior by its scale alone, and the ebonized finish on the exterior gives it the presence to anchor any kitchen, dining room, library, or office. Below an understated cornice, soaring glass-front doors of the bookcase provide visibility to regard the contents of the two cabinets, using three shelves each (13 ¾” deep) adjustable on sawtooth brackets. The first three doors (from left to right) exhibit the unmistakable wavy surface of antique glass however the fourth and fifth panes might be more modern replacements. In contrast to the ebonized exterior, the back and shelves of the interior have been painted an ethereal blue-gray to further illuminate and highlight the contents. Delineating the upper and lower bodies are two small, retractable shelves that can slide out as needed to place something like a book being removed or filed back in the stacks. The lower body of the unit–protruding slightly beyond the shelves like a “buffet a deux corps”–offers locking cabinets for (less visible) storage and organization. Each shelf measures 16 ¾” deep, adjustable on sawtooth brackets for your convenience. Cleaned, tightened and polished, this monumental storage piece is ready to astound in your interior.

Dimensions: 82 ⅜” H x 56” W x 28 ⅜” D
A substantial carved cabinet from Portugal, 18th century if not earlier, made of chestnut wood that has been carefully transformed with reeded, geometric designs on the four doors.

Using just a single solid plank for each side of the cabinetry, the interior is divided into upper and lower sections enclosed by these gorgeous doors hung on forged iron hardware with working locks. The top cabinet offers a high, narrow shelf around three sides like a kind of mezzanine over a 22” deep shelf that fills the interior. Below that, to the right side, is a small tabernacle box whose door is also carved with the repetitive lines seen on the exterior doors. The lower cabinet has one shelf, approximately 48” wide x 22” deep. While this cabinet may be nearly 400 years old its solid construction and extraordinary craft would make an astounding addition to any interior.
