Handpainted Mid Century Modern Glazed Bookcase / Drinks Cabinet - Retro Statement Piece

Introducing our Handpainted Mid Century Modern Glazed Bookcase / Drinks Cabinet, a captivating piece that seamlessly blends retro charm with contemporary style. This vintage Herbert E. Gibbs bookcase/cabinet (the Gibbs label has become detached unfortunately) has been thoughtfully restored and handpainted using Fusion Mineral Paint 'Oakham' – a versatile bronzey-grey shade that transitions beautifully between bronze and grey tones depending on the light.

The back of the cabinet features a striking designer wallpaper, adding a bold statement and diverting attention from the boxy angles of the piece. It serves as a focal point, elevating any interior space with its unique character.

The top section of the bookcase features one glass shelf that can be adjusted to three different positions. It also showcases two glazed sliding doors (please note: minor superficial chips may be present on the edges). Should you prefer an open-fronted cabinet, the glazed doors can be easily removed.

For added flair, a mains-powered, warm white LED strip light has been installed. It is conveniently controllable by the included remote control or an inline switch, allowing you to create the perfect ambiance. The lighting is also dimmable, giving you complete control over the mood.

The bottom cupboard of the bookcase is adorned with two walnut veneer doors, expertly sealed with Osmo oil. This versatile piece is pictured and styled as a drinks cabinet, but it can also serve as a practical storage solution for a home office, bedroom, or stylish bookcase.

Please note that this is not a brand-new piece of furniture. It has had a previous life, resulting in minor imperfections and typical wear and tear that add to its vintage charm. Restored and refinished by hand, this bookcase displays a high-quality finish that showcases its unique character rather than a machine-made perfection.

Crafted with solid teak and walnut veneer doors, this Handpainted Mid Century Modern Glazed Bookcase / Drinks Cabinet boasts durability and timeless appeal. The safety glass shelf and sliding glass doors further enhance its aesthetic appeal and functionality.

Measuring 112cm tall, 91.5cm wide, and 28cm deep, with the top glazed section measuring 65cm tall and the bottom cupboard measuring 32cm tall, this bookcase is perfectly sized for alcoves or any space in need of a stylish storage solution.

Rest assured, the bookcase will be carefully wrapped for protection during shipping. We utilise a trusted furniture courier service to ensure safe and secure delivery right to your doorstep.

To maintain its beauty, simply clean the bookcase with a dry cloth. Avoid using chemicals, as they may react with the paint and cause damage. For spillages, promptly wipe them away with a damp cloth.

Ideal for interior design enthusiasts, book lovers, and those who enjoy entertaining at home, this one-of-a-kind Mid Century Modern Glazed Bookcase / Drinks Cabinet is a true statement piece. Don't miss the opportunity to own this captivating fusion of mid-century style and bold graphic prints. Once it's gone, it's gone!
