eBay Antiques No. 218
Victorian Antique Corner Shelf
As far as Victorian antique shelves go, I'm not sure if anyone saw this shelf go up for sale on Ebay, but I think this is up there with some of the better ones. With a 32" height it is also one of the taller shelves that I've run across. The integrated spiral columns are also an added twist, if you'll excuse the pun. There were a few minor losses to the carvings but 10 bidders and 20 bids later, bidding ceased successfully at $661.
