Description from the seller

Title: English Minister's Desk "Pedestal Desk" – Victorian Era – Mahogany
Description:
I am selling a magnificent English eminence desk from the Victorian era, in solid mahogany and mahogany veneer, bought from an antique dealer (receipt from 2004 provided).
This "Pedestal Desk" is distinguished by its classic elegance and functionality. It is paneled on all sides, allowing it to be placed in the center of a room.
Main features:
Dimensions: Width 138 cm | Height 76 cm | Depth 75.5 cm.
Top: Upholstered with original green "Empire" leather with a fine gilded frieze. Beautiful patina of age.
Storage: 9 drawers in total (one large central drawer, four drawers on each side), offering ample storage. Original brass drop handles.
Practicality: The desk can be dismantled into 2 parts (the top is removable) for easier transport and installation.
Condition:
The piece is in good overall condition. Note some wear marks on the leather and normal wear on one of the drawers, evidence of its authenticity and history.
Price: €1,400
Viewable in Marly-le-Roi. Cash on collection only at my home.
Attention: no carrier that does not guarantee handling, protection, and loading of the furniture into the truck. Consider hiring a mover if needed.
