About the Item

An elegant and most unique French 19th century Louis XVI st. Belle Epoque period mahogany, burl elm, and ormolu desk attributed to Maison Krieger. The two drawer desk is raised by circular tapered fluted legs with ormolu top and bottom caps, and fine topie shaped feet with lovely ormolu sabots. Each leg is connected by a superb scalloped shaped stretcher with a central ormolu rosette. Above each leg are richly chased block rosettes flanked by acanthus leaves set beneath the drawers. Each drawer displays exceptional richly chased foliate keyhole escutcheons set on a beautiful burl elm background and framed within a finely detailed Coeur de Rai band flanking the arched center of the apron. The sides also display superb fitted burl elm panels while the back is decorated in the same manner as the front with faux drawers. Above is a fitted gold tooled leather writing surface framed within a mahogany band with a fine mottled ormolu border.
