A handsome mahogany display bookcase with a single glazed door, stepped plinth base and simple architectural detailing. The proportions are restrained and well balanced, allowing the warmth of the timber and the character of the glass to take focus. The glazed panel shows gentle waviness and uneven reflection, consistent with late 19th to early 20th century hand-finished or early machine-made glass rather than modern float glass. The interior features fixed shelving with timber backboards, showing natural grain, patina and age. An elegant and versatile piece suited to books, ceramics or collected objects, working equally well in a hallway, study or dining space. Wear and surface marks are consistent with age and use.
