Vintage 1960s Glazed Bookcase Display Cabinet by Morris of Glasgow

A wonderful, vintage, slim-line teak glazed bookcase by fine furniture maker, Morris of Glasgow. It dates from the 1960s and its design is perhaps more traditional than midcentury but it’s a quiet piece with a small footprint that will slot discreetly against a wall without demanding too much attention or space. Its neutral design will mix with furniture, homeware and styles from different periods. Although at a glance a simple piece of furniture, its construction is superior with dove tail joints at the base, adjustable shelves and a beautiful. warm grain across its surfaces. Use for books, displaying precious treasures or both.

Description

This authentic, vintage bookcase is ‘sold as seen’. Overall it is in good – very good, used condition. The piece has been checked, cleaned and wax polished on its external surfaces but otherwise the finish is original. There are two height adjustable shelves in the main bookcase and the two glass doors slide with ease in their runners. The interior is clean and tidy and the doors are chip-free. Overall, the piece carries some light scuffs, knocks and superficial marks here and there on its exterior, as you might expect with a vintage piece of this age, but overall this is minor – do browse our photos for an accurate sense of its condition. It is solid and sturdy with no wobbles or signs of repair. The Morris of Glasgow maker’s mark isn’t in place but we attribute it with confidence as it has many signature details such as the style of the shelf pegs and the construction. Do browse our photos for a good sense of its great order but please don’t hesitate to get in touch with any queries.
