Writing desk from France in the Louis XVI style. This piece has been ebonized and finished with a lustrous French polish. There are five dovetailed drawers all with brass original hardware. The center drawer has a key and lock in working condition. There are leaves that pull out from the sides to extend the working space for functionality. The top of the desk is covered in a handsome cognac tan leather embossed with a gold leafed trim, as well as the pull out leaves.
