AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Walnut secretary with a flip-top, Victorian era, circa 1880/1900. Large lyre legs and a central vase-shaped stretcher, moulded ovolo frames around the entire perimeter, turned knobs on the top. When opened it becomes a writing desk with eight light-colored drawers and a central mirror. Real damages visible in the photos to declare: interior mirror broken in a triangle, interior top with a flip-front to be restored because stained, veneer peeled on the lower-right front small drawer and on the left side upper, where the light wood is visible underneath. An well-used piece to be cleaned and polished, with signs of wear everywhere. I am selling as pictured, to be restored; the wood is very solid. The lyre legs are equipped with functioning wheels. Regarding pickup on-site in Lusciano, Province of Caserta, I will personally handle the packing. Kind regards,
