The writing table has been finished with a lustrous French polish of museum quality. There are five dovetailed drawers featuring brass cast pulls. The central drawer has a working lock and key. The wood has a beautiful parquetry design. The desk has brass trim detailing around the top and on the legs. The top also showcases a green leather writing surface and two pull out leaves for added functionality.
