Hard To Find

A shop shelf with a very handsome past. This 1930s haberdashery shelf was originally used in small European clothing and notions shops, where shelves like this displayed bolts of ribbon, folded fabrics, gloves, and sewing goods within easy reach of customers. Crafted from hardwood with beautifully hand turned legs, it still carries its gleaming original finish that highlights the warmth of the wood. The three open tiers offered practical display and storage in busy shops, and today Sylvie loves it as a shelving piece for books, ceramics, or folded linens where its elegant proportions really shine.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.

    This piece has minor stains and marks consistent with years of use, but the original finish is intact and still gleams. There is just a little wiggle to the legs. As with many antiques, this piece may show gentle repairs, cracks, scratches, holes, years worth of patina, and stains - just the way we like it.
