Antique Burr Oak Bookcase Base Cabinet / Shop Counter, possibly by Gillows of Lancaster
£220.00
153cm w x 47d x 99h
This cabinet is identical to one which i have seen in the houses of parliament, it was once the base of a taller cabinet which would have been in a long row
It has been used as the till point / shop counter in our shop for many years
The central carved rosette leads me to believe that it may well have been made by Gillows of Lancaster
The door panels are lovely burr oak panels whilst the top is normal solid oak as are the frames of the doors
The wonderful carved oak end is some of the best carving that i have seen whilst the other end is oak veneer and some of it is missing / damaged
There is a small cut to the left hand rear edge of the top where it was cut into the corner of a wall
One of the internal shelves is MDF
The left hand door has a working lock and when this is closed and locked you also can't access the right hand cupboard but you can from behind the counter as i have cut out the rear panel
