About the Item

This is an absolutely stunning gold dore' bronze mounted cylinder desk with the best cherub or putti scenes and other bronze mounts that make it absolutely superb. The desk dates to the 1900s era or even earlier and is in good antique condition and has stains to the leather surface that add character to this marvelous antique. the desk has no major flaws other than minor signs of age and use and the leather I see as a positive; a sign of character. The desk measures 44.25 wide x 43.75 tall x 25.5 deep. The desk dates to 1890-1900 and could be Linke but is not marked so we will say its in the style of.
