A superb projecting bookcase in solid Perora wood, molded and carved with Venus's hoof motifs. It opens with four glazed and paneled doors, the uprights are curved, the cornice is shaped, and the glass panes are beveled. The carved decorations are highlighted with gold, the keys and keyhole escutcheons are in gilt bronze, and all the shelves are adjustable in height. Exceptional quality of cabinetmaking and a beautiful waxed finish.
