Description
Elegant Library, Louis XV style, opening with two doors in Mahogany Veneer, glazed on three quarters of their surfaces. These last ones are made up in the lower part of full panels skillfully curved, embellished with vegetable inlays on a Rosewood background. These doors have entrances of finely chiseled brass locks, and the door on the right has a long lock with top and bottom hooks. The furniture is supplied with its key. The interior, in Mahogany, is furnished with four shelves 31 cm deep, placed on racks and therefore adjustable as desired over a total storage height of 168 cm, as long as you unscrew the cleats.
This Library is topped with a Cornice in solid Rosewood, cut in a Gendarme's Hat, and itself crowned with a generous Bronze shaped in Shell, flowers and foliage. It overlooks an inlaid floral decoration framed by a lemon net, reminiscent of the one present on the low scalloped crosspiece.
The front uprights are, at the top and at the bottom, enriched with bronze ornaments, and the four feet are embellished with clogs of the same alloy.
The sides of this piece of furniture have a design similar to that of the facade, namely panels in Rosewood Veneer delimited by Lemon nets and surrounds in Mahogany Veneer.
Note the omnipresence of brass rods, more or less worked, emphasizing with finesse certain elements of this piece of furniture, such as its Cornice, its lower part, its front uprights, or even the various components of its doors. It should also be noted that each of the ornaments of this piece of furniture is, besides Quality, fixed by screws.
The reasonable dimensions of this Library give it interesting roominess and adaptability to even small surfaces. But it is undoubtedly its paradoxical Refined Character that will end up charming its future buyer. Perfect condition after restoration in our workshop. Finish only waxed on hard bottom

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 24th March 2025
We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
