French Sheraton Revival Bonheur du Jour Console Desk 1930s

About the Item

A 20th-century vintage desk from the 1930s of Sheraton Revival style, drawing inspiration from the renowned British furniture designer Thomas Sheraton of the late 18th century. Sheraton's legacy was marked by refined craftsmanship and influences from the neoclassical era. This desk is a beautiful reproduction of this specific historical style. In furniture terminology, 'Bonheur du jour' signifies a ladies' writing table with small cabinets and a writing surface. Adorned with brown leather tabletop, this piece features a spacious drawer and beautiful brass detailing throughout. Its design includes a central curved letter rack along with two inkwells, reflecting the traditional charm of writing implements. Meticulously restored at our atelier. ------------------- We are an exhibition space and an online destination established by the passionate art director behind Jonathan Amar Studio.
