Item Description
A fine Victorian ladies writing table or bonheur-du-jour, ebonised and with gilt decoration, designed in the French Second Empire taste and reflecting the fashionable Aesthetic Movement influence of the period. The top retains its original beautifully aged tooled leather writing surface and pierced brass gallery over three small drawers, with a single long frieze drawer beneath.
The trestle supports are crisply detailed with roundels and scrolling ornament, joined by a turned stretcher and raised on original brass and ceramic castors. Compact in scale yet highly decorative, this is a refined occasional desk or writing table, equally at home in a bedroom or living space as it is a study.
Very good antique condition with an attractively aged writing surface and gentle wear to the ebonised finish and gilding. Structurally sound, clean and ready to place.
English, circa 1870.
H: 85 W: 66.5 D: 55 cm
Height of desk top: 74 cm
Height to underside of desk: 61 cm
