Description from the seller

Classic Antique Display Cabinet / Bookshelf with Original Blown Glass and Adjustable Shelves – Circa 1900

Description:
Atmospheric and characterful antique wooden display cabinet / bookcase from the late 19th / early 20th century. This cabinet combines a robust look with refined historical details.

Special features:
Original old blown glass: The doors still feature authentic, lightly bubbled glass in which the characteristic air bubbles and ripples of old artisanal glasswork are clearly visible.
Adjustable shelves: The interior is equipped with the traditional 'mouse steps' system (stepped wooden slats), allowing the sturdy shelves to be easily adjusted to any desired height.
Curved shelves: The shelves have a decorative semi-circular notch at the front. This not only creates a sense of space but also makes it easy to store and display items.
Excellent condition of hardware: The original lock closes beautifully and comes with a matching key. The wooden sliding bolt of the fixed door closes perfectly and tightly with no play.
Ornate hardware & details: Fitted with beautifully engraved copper/brass escutcheons, a classic cap with geometric motifs and collars, and solid round feet at the front.
A highly functional and decorative cabinet that fits perfectly in a classic, country, or modern minimalist interior.

Specifications:
Type of furniture: Display cabinet / Dish cabinet / Bookshelf
Period: Circa 1890 – 1910
Material: Wood (stained/dark patina), glass, copper/brass hardware
Dimensions:
Height: 188 cm
Width: 113 cm
Depth: 56 cm

Condition:
In very good, authentic condition with a beautiful aged patina. The wood shows light age-related traces that contribute to the character of the piece. No damage to the glass. The lock, key and fastenings function excellently. Structurally very solid and ready for immediate use.

Packaging & Shipping:
Professional protection: To optimally protect the weight and fragility of the authentic blown glass, the cabinet is carefully wrapped in a thick layer of bubble wrap, foam, and protective cardboard. The whole thing is securely fixed to a wooden pallet.
Insured transport: Shipping is carried out via professional pallet transport and is fully insured.
Delivery to the door (ground floor): The driver will deliver the pallet to the front door on the ground floor.
Important on receipt: Please note that the driver will not carry the furniture inside or upstairs. Please arrange some help to move the cabinet safely indoors after delivery.
Pickup: Pickup is, of course, also possible by prior arrangement
