Description
Two-section writing desk. European School. 18th century.
Walnut wood with marquetry and fittings. Dimensions: 245 x 99 x 51 cm. An 18th-century two-section bureau, conceived as a folding desk at the bottom and a glass-fronted display case at the top. The upper section is topped with a curved, split pediment framed by ornamental details and turned finials. The lower section features large drawers with openwork metal handles, characteristic of late Baroque and Rococo styles. The piece combines practical functionality with a refined decorative style, characteristic of the European centers where this type of furniture first gained prominence in libraries and offices.
