Tavolino scomponibile con piano a vassoio e leggio. Italia, fine XVIII secolo - Secrétaire - Walnut

Disassemblable side table with a tray-top and a reading stand. Italy, late 18th century.

69 x 40 x h 71 cm.

Entirely crafted in solid walnut, it features two hinged side doors and a central drawer. The upper top, conceived as an extendable tray, opens into a reading stand with a leather-covered surface, while the frame rests on four curved legs. The transformable configuration testifies to the versatility of Italian work furniture from the late Enlightenment, designed for reading, writing, and the storage of small objects.
