Mahogany and Burl Mahogany Secretary, Restoration Period – Part 1 X

This Restoration period writing desk is made of burl mahogany veneer with deep, warm reflections. In the upper part, a belt drawer opens with a "spade" key, with a perfectly functional lock. The flap, veneered with four burl mahogany leaves arranged like an open book, opens to reveal new green leather, decorated with a gilded vignette and a refined central motif. Inside, an elegant bird's-eye maple tabernacle reveals a large niche and six drawers of varying sizes, all with finely chiseled brass knobs. The lower part of the piece offers three large lockable drawers, as well as a drawer hidden in the plinth, for discreet and ingenious storage. The whole is topped with a sober and noble Saint Anne gray marble, and rests on crushed ball feet at the front, typical of the period. This piece of furniture captivates with its elegant lines, rich materials, and subtle details. Its deep green leather, multiple storage compartments, and hidden drawers make it as practical as it is decorative. A true favorite for lovers of antique furniture and fine finishes. ********** Period: Restoration, early 19th century. Perfect condition after restoration in our workshop. Waxed finish.
