Gorgeous high style Rococo Victorian walnut slant lid secretary. The top has an interesting curved shape with an ornate carving in the middle. The top section features an original mirror with a lovely shaped carved border and very attractive glitter from diamond dusting of the original silvering. The top interior has three original shelves. The cut corners have detailed carvings, including a rose, on the top and base. There are two small drawers on either side of the base with a larger drawer in the middle. The drawer interiors along with the interior of the top are ALL made out of a vibrant birdseye maple. This stunning feature is a testament to the extra care and craftsmanship the cabinet maker took in making this piece. We had a new leather surface put on the the pullout writing tablet. The desk is supported by four graceful carved cabriole legs. We have a key that works the top door lock and another key can also be used to help open the other five drawers. A magnificent fine quality desk that shows its beauty both open and closed!
