Questions About French Polish Desk
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Whether or not French polishing is difficult is largely a matter of personal opinion. To get the effect, you must apply shellac to a surface in a certain manner. Most who have mastered the technique say that it takes time to learn the proper technique. Shop a wide range of wood furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023
    In French, the term for a writing desk that often featured a drop-down writing surface is secretaire. This type of desk is called a secretary desk in English. Simply put, a secretary desk is a multifunctional piece of furniture with a hinged writing surface that folds open or drops down. When the leaf is folded out, small inner storage compartments, which are called pigeonholes, cubbies, recesses or drawers, are revealed. On 1stDibs, shop antique secretary desks from some of the world's top sellers.
