About the Item

Stunning vintage oak book rack by Robert Thompson (also known as mouseman) from the 1960's. A simple and beautiful rack with the characteristic carved mouse signature. Robert "Mouseman" Thompson was a renowned English furniture maker, born in 1876, who gained fame for his distinctive handcrafted oak furniture adorned with signature mouse carvings.
