Antique Jacobean Style Oak Bureau Bookcase | Barley Twist Legs | AF-6797

Antique early 20th century Jacobean style bureau bookcase in oak, a handsome and well-proportioned piece of good quality, showcasing fine craftsmanship and combining a writing desk and bookcase in one. The upper section has a pair of astragal glazed doors opening to adjustable shelves, beneath a moulded cornice and a carved scrolling frieze with a central geometric boss. The fall front opens to a fitted interior of pigeonholes and a small central drawer, with a writing surface supported on brass stays. Below are two short drawers either side of a carved central panel, over a long drawer, all with geometric moulded fronts and brass flowerhead drop handles. The base stands on barley twist front legs joined by stretchers. The oak displays a stunning figured grain with striking medullary rays and a warm, rich colour throughout. The bookcase comes apart in two sections for easier delivery and access. Presented in good condition commensurate with age. A very desirable bureau bookcase, a perfect addition to any study, hallway or living room.
