Furniture deliveries are carried out by one-man couriers, so assistance will usually be required to help unload the item at delivery. Delivery is generally to the door, although some drivers may assist further at their own discretion.

A More Sustainable Choice
A More Sustainable Choice
Choosing antique and reclaimed furniture is one of the most sustainable ways to furnish a home.
Older furniture was often built using solid timber and traditional craftsmanship designed to last for generations, rather than a few years.
By giving these pieces a new home, you help reduce demand for mass-produced furniture while keeping beautiful, characterful items in circulation for years to come.

Description
This is a substantial and imposing piece of rustic furniture, crafted from solid pine with a warm, honey-toned finish. It features seven fixed shelves, providing extensive storage space for a large book collection or decorative displays.
The design is classically understated, with a traditional molded cornice and an elegant arched "scalloped" detail to the top rail. The back is finished with attractive tongue-and-groove "V-joint" paneling, which adds to its sturdy, high-quality feel. Its shallow footprint allows it to provide maximum storage while remaining flush against a wall, making it a functional yet decorative addition to any home office, library, or living space.
Condition
The bookcase is in good used condition and is structurally massive:
-
Finish: The pine has a lovely natural patina. There are minor scuffs, light surface scratches, and small dings throughout, consistent with its age and use.
-
Shelving: The shelves are firm and clean, though there are some historic marks from book placement over time.
-
Build: The unit is exceptionally tall and heavy. It remains structurally very sound and stable.
-
Safety Note: Due to the extreme height and shallow depth of this piece, we strongly recommend that it is secured to a wall once in position.
