This outstanding Victorian oak open bookcase, styled in the manner of Pugin, is a striking example of Gothic Revival craftsmanship. The top lifts to reveal a hidden compartment within the exquisitely carved frieze—an elegant nod to the era’s fascination with detail and secrecy. Comprising two bays with eight adjustable shelves, each with ribbed fronts and fabric lining, the bookcase is flanked by two carved pillars, one concealing an additional trio of shelves. Raised on a stepped plinth, it offers both grandeur and versatility, ideal for showcasing a distinguished book collection or displaying cherished objects with refined presence.
