19th Mid-C French Walnut Desk or Shop Counter Meuble De Metier with Cash Drawer

About the Item

French former office of shop counter, circa 1850 This Meuble de Metier was used in a trade and it was equipped with a cash drawer which is still there, as you can see in the photos: a slot is drilled on the right-hand side of the counter to slide coins in.
