Advert Description
Are you interested in this item? This item is up for auction at Catawiki. Please click on "respond to advert" (orange button) to get redirected to the Catawiki website. Catawiki’s goal is to make special objects universally available. Our weekly auctions feature thousands of unusual, rare, and exceptional objects you won’t find in just any store. Biedermeier furniture of great value and elegance. Swedish production, dating from the mid-19th century.
It is a secrètaire with a 40 cm drop-leaf desk, in blonde walnut root and with a refined black profile. The piece of furniture in its robustness and essentiality is very functional: the lower part is composed of 3 large drawers with bronze locks, while the upper body houses a central drawer and a letter holder niche. On both sides we find 2 symmetrical columns of small drawers with round bronze knobs.
Strictly restored according to tradition: the surfaces were smoothed, then wicked and polished by hand with transparent shellac. The 4 locks are all perfectly functional with the use of a single key. 64113369
