Pair of Traditional Burr Walnut Low Open Bookcases
A pair of vintage open bookcases finished in beautifully figured burr walnut veneers. Although inspired by the traditional Victorian style, these bookcases most likely date from the mid-20th century, combining classic proportions with practical, everyday functionality.
Each bookcase features two adjustable shelves, allowing you to customise the storage space for books, ornaments or display pieces. Please note that the left-hand bookcase has a fixed lower shelf at the base. Their compact size also makes them ideal as bedside tables, offering storage while maintaining an elegant appearance.
The rich burr walnut grain gives each piece plenty of character, with warm tones and attractive figuring throughout. They remain in good vintage condition with some marks, scuffs and age-related wear, all consistent with years of use and adding to their authentic charm.
