An absolutely stunning antique French knee hole desk. This was made in France, it dates from around the 1930s.
It is a lovely petite size, and is of outstanding quality. There is profuse floral inlaid patterns of various woods on all sides, including the back and top. There are amazing bronze ormolu mounts, and a beautiful brass rim around the top edge. This has a good amount of storage space and is beautifully finished on the back, so can be used as a free standing item.
This is in very good original condition, we have had it re-polished, there is only some extremely minor wear here and there beneath the polish.
