Note the unique newer, professionally applied steel blue painted finish with blue interior, updating the look and accented with brass hardware. The finish is slightly distressed, fitting the age and adding to the character of this desk. Enlarge photos to appreciate the layers of colors that combine to create this look.
The traditional interior has 8 small drawers (including 2 that are curved) offering space to organize and a central "cubby" with 8 additional petite drawers.
This bureau has been restored, all drawers function, desktop is solid and ready to be used and enjoyed. Locks do not function.
