Description from the seller

This two-drawer bookcase, made of laminated mahogany wood, is a sober and functional piece that faithfully follows the decorative canons of the Louis XVI style, reinterpreted in the second half of the 20th century. Its rectilinear design, with vertical fluted elements on the sides and discreet moldings on the upper and lower ends, evokes the French Neoclassical aesthetic, marked by symmetry, proportion, and restrained elegance.

The two upper drawers, equipped with round brass knobs, offer discreet storage capacity, while the open shelves allow displaying or storing everyday items. The lower shelf has a rear hole for cable or outlet passage, which suggests a practical adaptation for contemporary uses — such as a stand for electronic equipment or lamps — without losing its classical character.

Laminated mahogany, with its warm finish and visible grain, adds presence and nobility, making this shelf a versatile piece that blends naturally into classic, eclectic, or vintage-inspired interiors. Ideal for those who value functionality without sacrificing style.

Certified shipping and good packaging.
