About the Item
This magnificent French secretary desk is a true showcase of artistry and craftsmanship, distinguished by its rare Sevres porcelain plaques, rich parquetry inlay, and luxurious bronze mounts. Crafted from fine walnut, the desk features a slant-front writing surface adorned with a beautifully painted oval Sevres plaque depicting classical figures in a pastoral scene. Complementing this are additional hand-painted Sevres panels inset into the frieze and stretcher, each delicately rendered with landscapes and romantic vignettes.
The parquetry veneer, laid in intricate geometric patterns, enhances the desk’s refined surface, while the gilt-bronze mounts highlight the architectural form with neoclassical elegance. The finely chased ormolu details frame the panels, legs, and corners, emphasizing the Louis XVI influence in its design. Raised on fluted legs joined by an elegant stretcher, the desk is both sturdy and graceful.
This French Sevres porcelain and bronze mounted secretary desk is not only a functional piece of furniture but also a collector’s treasure, embodying the luxury and sophistication of 19th-century French decorative arts. Perfect for an elegant study, library, or salon, it stands as a rare statement of taste and refinement.
