Description

This Pair of 19th Century Slender French Directoire Style Mahogany Marble Topped Diminutive Open Bookcases/Side Tables brilliantly combines neoclassical characteristics with the timeless elegance of dark mahogany wood, marble, and wrought brass. The bookcase frames are made of solid mahogany wood, and the tops have radiant marble surfaces in gentle pink and cream tones with golden honey and streaks of deep lavender. The marble rests atop each bookcase and is surrounded by a highly crafted brass gallery, adding to the bookcases’ visual appeal. Each bookcase has three open shelves for adaptable storage and display and carefully inlaid ebony trim along the sides. These design features work together to lend depth and elegance to this bookshelf pair, making it a unique find and attractive addition to any high-end living space or interior style.
