About the Item
A beautiful folding secretaire with a minimalist vibe and a functional design. This piece is constructed fully of straight lines and has an astonishing flame birch veneered folding cover / writing board. The piece highly resembles the works of Werner West, but as his designs were endless and many were for private residences, it is impossible to confirm if it is by him. Nevertheless, a gorgeous small secretaire for a make shift working space in any interior. The item is in a lovely condition, with the key included.
