We are pleased to be offering today this Victorian walnut step back double door double drawer bookcase from the Victorian era of the 1880s. It came right out of a home in Massachusetts. They had taken the back and adapted it to fit around some moldings. It isn’t noticeable from the front, but I wanted to mention it. It is solid black walnut with two doors framing three adjustable shelves behind. It has two hand cut dove tail drawers in the base with hand carved handles on each picture frame molded drawer. It has a bracket base with cornices that are incise carved. It has a wide bevel edge on the base to follow the contours on the crown molded top. The bookcase looks like it had a rough life around the hinges at one time. You can see the repairs on the hinges over the years, which is common from the doors swinging open and damaging the pins. We will detail out the hinge repairs prior to shipping. The bookcase is pretty much original finish with normal nicks and dings. There is a corner of the molding chipped on the base, but otherwise it is good and sturdy. The overall size is 53 inches wide at the base, 19 inches deep, 60 inches high overall and 12 inches high on the base cabinet. It has a lock, but no key.
