SOLD Antique Excessively Carved Oak Figural Bookcase - Museum Quality
We are pleased to offer this extraordinary, excessively carved oak two-door bookcase, dating from the 1880s and likely of European origin. This museum-quality piece is in shiny original condition and showcases intricate carvings throughout, including:
• 45-degree angle molded step-out top
• Cupids carved into the top corners
• Carved dressed figurines, fruit, and berries detailing
• Claw feet on the carved posts and bun feet on the base
• Flawlessly carved doors that could serve as standalone wall décor
• Bulging crown top with the number “1621” engraved, possibly referencing an original date
The bookcase comes with three adjustable shelves and includes a key, though the lock functionality is uncertain. Raised panel sides further highlight the fine craftsmanship. The exceptional detail, quality, and condition make this piece truly museum-worthy.
Dimensions:
• Width (Top): 56 inches
• Depth (Top): 23 inches
• Height: 67.5 inches
