The main structure of the Secretaire has a majestic architectural superstructural cabinet resting on top, representing a temple. The Biedermeier Abbatant is veneered in Birchroot with a fall front writing desk hiding a fitted interior with drawers, columns, a cabinet and writing slide in the form of a temple.
