Philippe V Desk From the 17th Century
Located in Madrid, ES
This exceptional Felipe V writing desk is a true masterpiece of cabinetmaking. It captivates with its graceful design and meticulous craftsmanship. The piece, with a hinged cover and front, has been fashioned from the rich and warm woods of walnut and rosewood. What sets this piece apart is the intricate geometric decoration, finely inlaid in fruit woods, creating a captivating visual contrast.
The details are simply breathtaking: bone inlays delicately worked into the sides and legs of ebonized wood, adding a touch of refinement and sophistication. The ebonization enhances the depth and texture of the wood, adding an extra dimension of elegance to this piece.
