Moreover, it boasts a thoughtful design that provides plenty of legroom, ensuring a comfortable and functional workspace. This Italian writing desk is more than just furniture; it is a statement piece that brings the grandeur and artistic sophistication of the Renaissance into your living or working space. Its combination of aesthetics and practicality makes it a valuable addition to any discerning collector's or connoisseur's repertoire. (Provenance -Woollas Hall)
