Vintage 1960s Bookcase Cabinet by Criterion

These midcentury, glass-door bookcase cabinets are really useful, non-fixed storage solutions for things you might want on display – favourite books, ceramics, trinkets and treasures – but with a generous cupboard to one side for items you’d prefer to have stowed away. Slender in depth at just 26cm, it doesn’t jut out into the room. It can sit discreetly against the wall or behind another piece of furniture like a chair or sofa. We love the golden wood of this particular piece by Criterion of Charing Cross, most likely beech. It dates from the 1960s but its neutral design will mix easily with furniture, homeware and styles from different periods. Although at a glance a simple piece of furniture, it’s well-crafted with adjustable shelves.

Description

This authentic, vintage bookcase is ‘sold as seen’. Overall it is in good, used condition. The piece has been cleaned and beeswax polished but otherwise the finish is all original. There are two height adjustable shelves in the main bookcase and the two glass doors slide with ease in their runners with a clean and tidy interior. Likewise, there is a further adjustable shelf in the side cupboard and it’s also clean and tidy inside with just light signs of use. The handle, hinges and closures are all secure and in very good order. Overall, the piece carries some scuffs, knocks and superficial marks here and there, primarily on the exterior wood and 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. We believe the legs have been added at a later date. The Criterion maker’s plate is in place inside the bookcase. Do browse our photos for a good sense of condition and tone. If you have any questions or would like to view the table, please do get in touch.
