Writing desk from France in the Louis XVI style. This piece has been ebonized and finished with a lustrous French polish. There are four dovetailed drawers all with brass original hardware and trim. The keys and locks are 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 gilded frieze, as well as the pull out leaves.
