Made from mahogany, it features a miter-cut frame refined with a corbin beak, a feature that demonstrates the meticulous attention to detail paid by cabinetmakers of the period.
Its two extensions, crafted in the same spirit as the top with brass pull rings, are covered in green imitation leather, offering a large and comfortable work surface.
On each side, three deep, compartmentalized drawers allow for neat storage.
The drawer fronts are accented with rosewood and ebony fillets, adding a touch of sophistication.
The original locks, with their brass entrances and keys, are not only functional, but also decorative elements.
The whole rests on four covered legs, finished with square wooden shoes, ensuring stability and durability.
The interiors are in oak.
This desk is not just a piece of utilitarian furniture, it is a piece of history that embodies the elegance and ingenuity of its time.
