Antique French Napoleon III Breakfront Bibliotheque

Outstanding antique French painted walnut Napoleon III breakfront bibliotheque or china cabinet. With the winter white interior, dramatic black finish and subtle gold highlights, the visual impact is enormous. This piece is in very nice condition and structurally sound. There is abundant storage making this bookcase ideal for the library or dining room. The glazed doors retain the original wavy glass and the shelves are fully adjustable. Below are three drawers resting above the lower doors. The attention to detail is remarkable in this stunning antique cabinet, it was probably commissioned by a collector as there are pull out slides under the drawers - see detailed photos. France circa 1870
