Item Details

A late 19th/ early 20th century French walnut bureau plat. The perfectly flat surface to this elegant desk still boasts the original gilt tooled leather. There are a few small surface marks to the top gathered over the past century, but this only adds to its character and history. The leather is set within an antique brass surround. There is a hidden extension to either side of the desk which when revealed and extended almost doubles the working space. Below are a combination of brass mounted drawers, each with its original key, two single drawers, one central and a double fronted deep single drawer with secret compartment hidden behind. The drawer configuration is replicated to the back of the desk in dummy form enhancing its appearance so when placed in a central position it may be pleasantly viewed from both sides. Raised on four elegant reeded legs with neat antique brass ferrules. Superb structure, condition and quality. French bureau plat circa 1890. 150 cm wide, the leaves adding a further 40 cm either side.
