About the Item
We are delighted to offer for sale this very rare French Empire Revival style burr walnut with bronze mounts and Malachite pillars kidney desk
This is a rare desk and that’s for sure, I’ve never seen another like it both in finish and style. Firstly, it’s a very highly collectable shape, kidney desks with the sealed backs look amazing from every angle. This one is detailed all over with solid bronze mounts, there are Sphinx heads, sideways facing solider heads, French laurel reefs, dancing ladies, the handles, the detail is absolutely epic. The green pillars are solid Malachite, not something I have ever seen on a desk before. The timer is burr walnut veneer on a French oak frame
This desk is not hugely old, I would say its mid to latter part of the 20th century but its based on a style from the early 19th century. If this was a period circa 1800 piece it would easily be a £200,000 desk and maybe even more
In terms of the condition there are age related patina marks all over to include various little chips here and there, we have cleaned waxed and polished it from top to bottom
If you were ever looking for a show stopping desk then this is it, this is like eye candy
