Monumental Inlaid French Bronze Mounted Louis XVI Cylinder Desk Circa 1900
Monumental Inlaid French Bronze Mounted Louis XVI Cylinder Desk Circa 1900
Let me make this very clear, this desk is a BEAST to move. The desk has a grand piano-like presence to it and is absolutely magnificent in terms of the quality of teh bronze ormolu which is super-crisp and everywhere! The piece has remarkable boxwood inlay and a gorgeous original finish and pull out leather writing surface and two pull out trays on each side for additional surface area. The desk has a few minor issues including a pull that is included and needs to be re-attached and a minor area of veneer missing which we can professionally massage away so you won't see it at all. The desk measures 65 wide x 31 deep x 46 tall and the writing surface is 32 inches tall.
Height: 46 in (116.84 cm) Width: 65 in (165.1 cm) Depth: 31 in (78.74 cm)
Wear consistent with age and use. Minor losses. Very good original finish and minor things mentioned which we will take care of.
