Arts & Crafts Bookcases
In the process of restoring our older home, I added the gas fireplace and bookcases to give the master bedroom a warm Arts & Crafts feel.
The bookcases are of VG fir. Interior panels have VG stiles & rails with pine bead board – like some originals I had seen in the area. Shelves are moveable. The leaded glass door panels were made by a local glass shop to mimic the beautiful original windows. Finish is 7 coats of shellac: 2 parts garnet to 1 part ruby. I still need to mill and install the 7/8″ quarter round molding…

That's stunning. Really beautiful. I'd love to see some close-ups.
