Three-door French network bookcase, as provided information indicates, made of pau santo wood with gilded metal fittings and interior divided into three shelves.

The front features three doors, the central one wider, filled with a metal mesh of lozenge lattice. The panels are framed by metal frames with softly undulating contours, enriched at the corners with small scrolls and vegetal motifs.

The grain of the wood forms oblique and symmetrical compositions, suggesting decorative leafwork on the structure. The upper terminal, slightly raised at the center, is crowned by a pierced shell-inspired ornament, accompanied by foliage and a small hanging festoon. A decorative metal frieze accompanies the cornice.
