we have seen our fair share of incredible furniture of the 15th to 19th Century periods. I must say, this specific cabinet desk is incredibly well preserved for its age. the fitting work and the design i have not encountered any at that level of sophistication and craftsmanship. The drawers the slides the compartments etc.. slide right out, the result that could only be achieved by big Masters. Antique Dealer West Hollywood CA Melrose Ave La Cienega Blvd. this type of furniture at that level are mostly kept with the old families, rarely to see them on the market. I have some other high end chateau inventory and rare pieces of the periods that are wonderful but they don't compare to this secretary.
