Refined writing desk entirely veneered in walnut and rosewood, embellished with walnut burl and inlays also made with fruitwoods. The desk features truncated pyramid legs, characteristic of the period, and a sliding top towards the back. This makes the furniture comfortable for seating, without necessarily being placed within the furniture's space itself; by opening it, one discovers the writing surface, equipped with a red leather-covered reading stand. The latter is also sliding, both in the center and at the sides, revealing four secret drawers ideal for storing objects. The furniture is also equipped with five drawers on the front and is open on the back, as the mastery of the inlays can also be admired from the rear. The inlays are highly refined, made in geometric patterns and in the classic fan shape on the corners, giving it superior elegance. It is a piece of furniture of great taste and refinement, capable of adding a touch of class and antiquity to any environment. Central Italy manufacture from the Louis XVI period, around the late 18th century. Measurements: H x W x D 83 x 123 x 65.5cm; D open 102.5cm
