Antique French Louis XVI Style Knee Hole Desk

About the Item

An absolutely stunning antique French knee hole desk. This was made in France, it dates from around the 1930’s. It is a lovely petite size, and is of outstanding quality. There is profuse floral inlaid patterns of various woods on all sides, including the back and top. There are amazing bronze ormolu mounts, and a beautiful brass rim around the top edge. This has a good amount of storage space and is beautifully finished on the back, so can be used as a free standing item.
