French Louis XV Period Bureau Plat
About the Item
The bureau plat opens with two drawers on one side. The top has a leather surface for writing and two, rare compartments on the top that lock. There is a third compartment in the center that opens to reveal a lectern. Two marks, “<>”, are found on the back and one is found on the side; however, the name of the maker is not visible. We know of similar examples, one made by André-Charles Boulle and three others by Charles Cressent.
