Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.

The bookcase has previously been wired to have a lit interior. It has likely been repolished at some point. There are a number of small old splits and losses to the veneer, including to the decoration on the door panels. A couple of the glass panes have cracks apparent. There are small sections of moulding missing from the doors of the lower section. Some surface marks and light scratches apparent, largely commensurate with age and use. In good country house appearance and structurally sound.
