These desks often feature multiple compartments, for organizing documents and a lockable section to secure important papers. One unique feature found in some antique notary desks (like this one) is a built-in locked safe, designed to store valuable items securely. Often, these safes were equipped with a small bell mechanism that would ring when the safe was opened, adding an extra layer of security to alert the notary or office owner. Has signs of wear and patina consistant with age and use. One of the backlegs has been professionally restored. Measurements Height 170cm Width 120cm Depth 83cm less
