An early 19th-century, c. 1910, Scandinavian (Swedish or Danish) secretary desk or butler's desk chest of drawers, with three drawers on the bottom and the top drawer a fake drawer front, pulling out out with a fall-front latch to form a writing surface, with hidden small drawers and compartments. Crenulated detail around the top. The pieces shows signs of an earlier professional restoration, with replaced escutcheons and some knobs. The top has cracks at the back of the wood on either side where it was lifted in the past, as well as along the top surface; the back right leg has a little wiggle. 39.5" wide by 20.25" deep by 35.5" tall.
