Description
Matched pair of solid Australian cedar glazed door bookcases with adjustable shelves and
french polished finish .
Most unusual to have a matched pair of glazed bookcases. These may have been either side of the fire place. There are minute differences to top mouldings and in height, possibly due to Victorian flooring. I assume these solid colonial coastal cedar facades were originally built into a stately home and were enhanced later to be free standing bookcases and were adjusted in size to accomodate a particular library..
