Item Description
An Edwardian mahogany metamorphic writing and work table, the crossbanded top opening on patent brass linkages to automatically elevate a tooled leather writing slope and fitted stationery gallery, set over a suspended work pouch and raised on slender square tapered legs.
Retailed by Finnigans, esteemed outfitters of luxury goods and travel accoutrements, the piece houses an ingenious rise-and-fall action stamped under patent numbers 1631 and 5466 that converts a compact side table into a complete writing station, representing the height of Edwardian space-saving ingenuity and design.
Very good antique condition, with only some light surface wear, a clean split to the original gilt-tooled leather from historic timber movement and internal wear to the lower compartment interior. The mechanism operates smoothly. Structurally sound, clean and ready to place in the home.
English, circa 1905.
