Antique Polished Burr Walnut Large Ladies Bureau / Secretary Desk

Antique Polished Burr Walnut Large Ladies Bureau / Secretary Desk

Description:

A stunning lockable antique burr walnut fall front ladies bureau / writing desk on carved legs and dating probably from 1920's - 1930's. The burr walnut veneers are stunning and are wonderfully patterned with rich colours. Beautifully fitted internally with pigeon holes, a centre cupboard, small drawers and the original leather writing pad, there are brass supports inside the desk which open automatically once the desk is opened. There are four further large drawers beneath the desk, each with the original handles, escutcheons and locks. I have cleaned and polished the handles by hand and I have carefully cleaned, oiled, waxed and polished the bureau and is now in super condition. A fabulous addition to a hallway, home office, landing or indeed any room.

Condition:

A real beauty, this piece is in very good condition with no major damage apart from some minors scuffs and marks which are to be expected with a piece of this age. There are a couple of very minor knocks to the veneer which I can share photos of if required. The drawers and desk open and close with ease and the original leather writing pad is in good used condition with a few minor marks here and there. The locks are all working save for the key to the small internal cupboard is lost and is unable to be locked. I've thoroughly cleaned and polished the drawers and desk with beeswax polish and it is gleaming. If you'd like to see detailed photos of the scuffs and marks, please don't hesitate to contact me.
