Austro-Hungarian Secrétaire à Abattant
About the Item
Wearing a layer of Austrian walnut root veneer, this secrétaire has a unique grain that one does not often see; it swirls and undulates across the surface drawing the eye along in a mesmerizing dance. And that’s just the beginning! A geometric inlay frames the door and each drawer. Inside is equally as impressive with its arrangement drawers and cupboards, and it's use of contrasting veneer and inlays. Seldom have we seen such impressive use of burled grain.
