French 19th Century Mahogany Transitional Desk

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
A smart mahogany desk – with leather writing surface – from 19th Century France. This beautiful antique has a unique, transitional design that is heavily influenced by Louis XVI style. The top and drawer fronts are all trimmed in brass, and the legs accented with cast brass collars and feet. The worn brown leather top is in antique condition with embossed gold tooling at its edge. Leather-topped slides extend from each side, giving the desk an 83” width when extended. Three drawers are housed within the antique: two deep drawers at each side of the kneehole and a wide center drawer which contains a working lock. One key. A pair of brass bail handles adorn each of the deep drawers, creating the illusion of four side drawers, though there are only two. Knee clearance: 24-⅝”. Be sure to view the detailed images for a close look at the current condition of this antique.
