Italian flat waxed wood desk with drawers

About the Item

This magnificent Italian writing desk, dating from the late 17th century, is a striking example of Renaissance-inspired craftsmanship. Made of richly patinated, waxed wood, it features a deep, warm hue that enhances its timeless character. The simple yet elegant lines embody the austere beauty of late Renaissance design, where symmetry, proportion, and balance were paramount. With its generous dimensions (167 cm long, 74 cm high, 76 cm deep), this versatile piece can be used as a writing desk, a display console, or an entryway statement piece. The two front drawers provide convenient storage, while the subtly curved top and sturdy base add to its robust presence. Whether placed in a study, a library, or a grand hallway, this piece exudes historic charm and refined elegance.
