M. FORD CREECH ANTIQUES

REGENCY MAHOGANY BOOKCASE (ETAGERE )
England, c1815

A rare form in the highest style, the shelved upper section of rectangular outline, with scroll terminals,

above a cupboard enclosed by a pair of paneled doors, ending in splayed bracket feet;

shelf uprights are tenoned into the bottom section.

Condition: Very good with excellent color and old finish (probably original); the upper section with 2 well

done repairs to the uprights, top shelf with two short shrinkage cracks; lower section with invisible repairs to the legs,

the cupboard doors very slightly bowed, some staining to cabinet top.

Note: Bookcases, or etageres, of this form were usually made in pairs on special order only. No comparables

could be found to this particular form. There is a strong possibility that it is from the Gillows

manufactory in Lancaster, due to its originality and quality. It is

not marked. However, not all Gillows furniture bears marks.
