About the Item

Crafted from mahogany and morado, and delicately line-strung for contrast, this secrétaire à abattant, disguised as a Semanier dresser, is a masterful expression of late 18th-century French design. The stone top is set above brass-mounted columns and two upper drawers, followed by three faux drawer fronts that enclose a fall front panel. Opening the fall front reveals a finely appointed interior writing desk with a tooled leather surface, storage compartments, and thoughtful craftsmanship throughout. Below, three full drawers offer additional storage, each adorned with classical brass fittings. The piece rests on turned, tapering legs capped in brass, completing the stately and vertical composition ideal for elegant offices, libraries, or salons. Dimensions: 33" W x 31.25" D x 58.75" H
