Description from the seller
Antique Carved Wooden Writing Desk with Leather Top
Era: early 1900s
Important Italian desk from the early twentieth century, made of solid wood and characterized by refined carving along the entire front perimeter and the sides. The frieze features a rich series of hand-carved geometric and floral decorations, typical of artisanal production of the period.
The top is adorned with a wide brown original leather surface, with an elegant gold-threaded border around the perimeter. The leather shows the natural wear of time, an authentic sign of its history.
The structure, solid and well-balanced, rests on four substantial legs connected by shaped crossbars with an elaborate central carved motif.
On the front there is a wide, full-length drawer, entirely in wood, ideal for storing documents and writing materials.
A piece of furniture with great presence, perfect for studies, libraries or classic environments where one wishes to add a decorative and functional high-quality element.
