About the Item
A finely constructed bookcase secretary with a chest. The tall cabinet has a pierced brass 3/4 gallery around the marble top with cookie corners. The bookcase has a frieze drawer over double mirrored doors opening to a single shelf. A green leather top pull out return is in the center over three long drawers. With fluted half-column supports in front, fluted pilasters at the back, and recessed sides, raised on turned legs with brass collars on ball feet. The drawers have angular bales and all drawers and panels have brass string inlay details. Lacking a key.
Dimensions: 57" high x 25 1/2" wide x 15" deep
