AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Imposing Eclectic Bookcase / Archive Cabinet in Neo-Style (Circa 1920–1950)

Magnificent, extremely sturdy classical cabinet executed in an eclectic neo-style, presumably originating from Western Europe. The piece is richly decorated with classical elements such as fluted pilasters, fine woodcarving and stylish rounded arches at the top, giving it a grand appearance in both a classical and eclectic interior.

Materials, Construction & Details:
- Professionally crafted from warm woods with beautiful veneer work on the door panels.
- The interior of the shelves and cupboards is lined with a very sturdy textured fabric/wallpaper in a warm, attractive tone (supplied with some light, typical age spots that are not distracting).
- Equipped with an original key; all locks function excellently and operate smoothly with the same key.
- Each door features a handsome brass handle/hanger that makes the doors easy to open.

Key & Lock: An original key is present. All locks function excellently and operate smoothly with the same key.

Dimensions:
- Width: 222 cm (measured at the crown)
- Total height: 222 cm
- Upper cabinet height: 144 cm
- Lower cabinet (sideboard) height: 78 cm
- Total depth: 44 cm
- Shelf width: Shelves have a width of 65 cm.

Condition:
- The cabinet is in a lovely, characterful used condition.
- The furniture consists of 2 solid parts (a separate sideboard and a top cabinet), making the whole very sturdy and easy to handle and lift with 2 people.
- One of the doors has undergone a small, deft restoration to the edge in the past (clearly shown in the photos), which hardly stands out and does not affect the robustness or beauty of the piece.

Delivery & Transport Information:

Careful pallet transport: This lot is packed with the utmost care and shipped on a custom-sized pallet to prevent damage during transport.
Delivery to curb: The transport is door-to-door, but the driver delivers at curb level (ground floor). The driver will not carry the furniture inside.

Self-assembly assistance: Because this is a large, heavy piece on a pallet, you must arrange sufficient help yourself to unload the cabinet from the pallet after delivery and bring it indoors.

Important notice regarding absence:
We will be unavailable for business from November 19 to December 6. Items auctioned during this period will be shipped to you after December 6. Thank you for your understanding!
