Antique French Louis XIII Style Walnut Writing Desk

About the Item

Late 19th-century French writing desk in the Louis XIII style, sourced from Provence, France. Expertly hand-crafted from solid walnut, it features two storage drawers with traditional dovetail joinery and carved wooden pulls. The piece has been structurally restored and gently refinished, revealing a rich, warm brown tone that enhances the natural character and depth of the aged walnut. It stands on intricately hand-carved bobbin-turned legs conjoined by a trestle. It remains solid and stable, a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and joinery of the period. - Origin: Provence, France - Dimensions: W 55" x D 29.5" x H 30.5" - apron clearance 23.25" - Condition: The table has been structurally revised and gently refinished, preserving its naturally aged, rustic patina.
