A French made antique hanging or standing wall shelf. This one needs some attention and also has some cosmetic damage. Please see further notes on condition below.
From our no frills, budget section these are items that are a little more worn and damaged than those in our other shops on Etsy.
Sourced: in Normandy, France
Origin: French
Age: circa 1910-20’s
Materials: wood, metal
Size roughly: 28h x 21.5 x 5.5 inches or 70h x 54 x 14 cm
Condition: in antique condition with signs of previous use, worn, scrapes and scars, varnish wear and marks where things have previously stood, finials at the top have their tips broken off (see lower ones which are OK), the bottom shelf has a crack which means the lower shelf is very loose and wobbly (the addition of some washers would help here and make it ok for lighter use), some tightening of all bars between shelfs is required and we would recommend adding some washers to tighten things up and make the structure a little less wobbly, will work as is for wall hanging just about, but with careful and considered re-assembly and a little work will serve effectively for another 100 years, built for lighter use but will be capable and functional after a little work, please see all pictures
Weight: 1.28 kg (we are hopeful we can dismantle this for shipping which will mean this much cheaper shipping rate, if we cannot dismantle it we will contact you and advise if sold internationally)
Shipped from France
