Elegant and functional, a hand carved secretary desk was hand crafted in France about 1900. Walnut with raised and matched panels, the top has been re-varnished for durability. The balance of the original finish is very well preserved and has been waxed and polished, only an occasional wipe with a soft dry cloth is needed to maintain its glowing patina.
Opening the drop front reveals an interior in curly or "birdseye" maple with a tooled writing surface plus tiny drawers and cubicles. There is no key for the little locking drawer, the main key works as a handle. Five outer drawers have hand cut dovetail joints and original locks that operate with the dropfront key.
Dimensions of this exquisite antique furniture are 26" wide, 17" deep, 51" tall and the desktop is 29" high.
