Description from the seller

Secretary / fold-down front, Louis XV-style oak carved bar cabinet – 20th century

There is a lower drawer with two patinated bronze/brass handles decorated with foliate motifs and shells.

Finishes and Pedestal:
Sculpted uprights with a drop of flowers / stylized botanical motifs at the top.
Lower contoured belt adorned with a large shell carved at the center.
Sits on four cabriole legs ending in imposing claw-and-ball feet.
