About the Item

This refined 18th-century partner desk was crafted in the Poitou region of France, circa 1790. Built of solid wild cherry, the elegant writing table stands on carved cabriole legs embellished with acanthus leaves at the shoulders and ending with escargot feet. All sides are serpentine and bombe, over a scalloped apron decorated with floral and shell motifs. The front features five drawers arranged around an arched knee opening, each fitted with the original bronze escutcheons and ornate brass handles; the back is fully finished with five faux drawers, allowing the piece to float beautifully in the center of a room. The top is decorated with parquetry inlaid panels enhancing the natural warmth of the cherry grain. The Louis XV desk is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use and adorns a rich light walnut patina. All locks are in working order; five keys included. A fine and functional addition to a study, library, or executive office. Knee opening: 19.5" W × 25" H Overall: 60.75" W × 29" D × 31.75" H
