About the Item

Saddier (Et fils) is one of the most prestigious designer(s) as well as Salons in French Art Deco design, Saddier manufactured designs not only by the Saddier family, but of some of the most important names in the Art Deco movement This desk is stunning, a quintessential Saddier design, features tiger maple, rosewood, and walnut. It has a stunning starburst modernist inlay design as well as brass Greek key drawer pulls. The sides of the desk both feature a "step" waterfall design. One side was repaired in the 1950s but this does not affect the appearance of the piece. Both sides lift to expose 21" extensions, in a gull wing or drop leaf manner. Would compliment any type of traditional art deco or modern interiors-- would look incredible paired with other French art deco furniture designed by the likes of Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann, Leleu, Jacques Adnet, or other art deco designers like Pierre Jeanneret. The leather top on the desk is still in good condition for it's age, and only has a few minor flaws, the new owner can have the piece restored with new leather, we couldn't bear the thought of removing such a beautifully aged and patinated leather, as it truly just adds a tremendous amount of character to this piece. Other than the aforementioned minor flaws, this desk is breathtakingly beautiful and is in excellent condition with wear to commensurate with age. 58" L x 35" D x 30" T each side leaf adds 21" per side therefore desk extends to be 100" exactly. Continental US shipping complimentary.
