Description: Bookcase
Dimensions: 84" High x 43 1/2" Wide x 21" Deep
Notes: This cherry desk/bookcase is in pristine condition with a great construction. The piece is supported by ogee bracket feet, instead of simple flat brackets. Both portions are finished by reeded edge fluting terminating in lamb's tongue carvings. The interior of the desk shows inlay work on the prospect panel and features a secret drawer. The dovetails portray the quality of construction as do the chamfered door panels. A desk/bookcase in this condition is worth $29,000.
