The serpentine case is fitted with a single long drawer over two short drawers. The legs are squared and tapered ending in a spade foot. The top lifts revealing a rising interior with a carved prospect door and small dividers. A flap folds over to form a larger writing surface. Condition is very good with rich color and fine patina. I believe the hardware is original. Circa: 1780. Dimensions: Height: 32 1/4". Height with desk top up: 52", Width: 30 1/4", Depth: 21 1/4". less
