AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Cylinder desk, a mid-19th century bonheur du jour in wood (Louis-Philippe era). It features cabriole legs, a shaped frieze with a drawer, and a top lid with a storage compartment surmounted by a pierced frieze with scrolls. On the front there hides a small bonnet with tiny drawers and a pull-out writing surface with a decorative fabric insert.

Size: 124x84x53 cm

The piece presents overall sound structural condition, with a beautiful patina of the period and light, normal signs of time and wear coherent with its age. The pull-out surface shows evident wear and historic stains from use, while the wooden parts, the drawers, and the mechanism are well-preserved and intact.

Please examine the photos closely as they are an integral part of the description; tracked shipping including secure packing, any duties and customs taxes will be paid by the purchaser.
