English mahogany roll-top desk from 1850–1900.
Description from the seller
19th-century English mahogany sideboard.
An enchanting piece of furniture that immediately captures attention with its warm and luminous mahogany, capable of adding character to any space. The structure is solid and well-preserved. The front features a drop-down panel and four drawers: three of equal size and one smaller, along with the original sliding mechanism that supports the writing surface.
The front opens to reveal an interior rich in details: six small drawers, two secret compartments, a central door, and various open compartments for documents. The surface is covered in green leather with gold tooling decorations, in good condition and without any breaks. The hinges move smoothly; the lock works, although the key is missing.
The legs, in the typical 'clog' shape of English design, provide both momentum and stability. At the back, the original nails are visible, and the drawers retain their vintage linings. The compact size makes the piece ideal even for modern homes and small spaces. Only the absence of the right rear foot is noted, along with minor signs of age and wear. No damages.
