About the Item
Truly a spectacular example of its kind, this grand secretary grabs your attention with its broken arch pediment and doesn't let go until you admire the original bracket feet. In between, you're treated to a beveled mirror tablet inset below the center crown footing and beveled mirror doors with gently chamfered sides that open to reveal adjustable bookshelves and richly veneered drawers with herringbone crossbanding.
Once the bookmatched and crossbanded fall front is dropped, the eye is drawn to a warmly grained interior featuring a small central cabinet flanked by pigeon holes and drawers with matched fronts and wood knobs. The case is completed by a classic two-over-three arrangement of bookmatched drawers having herringbone crossbanding and outstanding walnut veneers.
