Description from the seller

French X-era secretary in exotic precious wood with maple inlay inserts.

The upper part consists of a fall-front concealing an open storage area designed as an arched post/mail slot compartment, and the lower part contains ink-stand compartments.

The fall-front top is clad in leather bordered by an elegant tooled border.

The lower body, much simpler in construction, is made up of two feet ending with a solid base.

The interiors are pegged maple and still retain original period keys and locks; the writing surface is reclinable and easily used as a storage compartment.

Origin: France (1820/30).

General conditions: Not restored but in excellent state of preservation.

Dimensions: 57x35 H125 cm.

Document: Certificate of Authenticity.

Assistance: We are at your disposal for further clarifications or particular photographs.

Shipping: Throughout Italy, Europe and the Rest of the World at very affordable prices with maximum security and traceability. Shipping will be arranged privately and will not be expensive.

We wish you a good day.
