Antique Oak Revolving Bookcase

A lovely revolving oak bookcase dating from the late 19th / early 20th Century. It has two levels and stands on a rotating base with castors below. The top of the bookcase hinges upwards and can be fixed at an angle on an easel back for reading and it comes with a removable bookrest. It is a good quality piece and the wood has a lovely rich colour. It is in good condition with no major damages and revolves freely. There are some signs of age and use, some light knocks and marks, a couple of minor chips on the bottom edge and a small chip to the bottom of one upright (see photos) but nothing detrimental. There are some signs of historic worm around the base which has all been treated as a precaution and hasn't affected the bookcase structurally or aesthetically. It is strong and sturdy and displays well. It has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use. The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
