AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This antique Victorian-style writing desk, dating from the late 1900s, is a piece of great decorative and functional character. It is made of bronze or silver-plated brass, with a finish that highlights its elegance and antiquity.
The structure features a curved tray with ornate edges, integrating three cylindrical containers for ink, pens, or other desk accessories. In the center, a small candelabrum rises, a distinctive detail that adds verticality and sophistication to the ensemble, evoking the intimate atmosphere of classic desks.
One of the most striking elements is the horse head-shaped ornaments located at the ends, which add symbolic strength and an equestrian air to the design. These details, along with the pearl border and the pierced backrest in the form of a lattice, reflect the ornamental taste of the Victorian era, where each object combined utility with art.
It is a well-preserved piece, ideal for collectors or lovers of historical furniture who value the beauty of everyday objects transformed into true works of art.
Certified shipping and good packaging.
