Lady's Rosewood Desk – Part 2, 19th Century

This rosewood lady's writing desk, dating from the second half of the 19th century during the reign of Napoleon III, embodies the elegance and refinement of period furniture. Its drop-front, covered in delicately patinated black leather, opens to reveal a meticulously crafted interior comprising a beveled mirror, two drawers, and a central compartment, offering both functionality and understated charm. The brass gallery, the finely chiseled bronze mounts and feet emphasize the nobility of its curved lines, typical of the revisited Louis XV style. This piece has benefited from the expertise of Lecomte Antiques, whose skilled work has given it an exceptional patina, revealing the full richness of its wood and the finesse of its marquetry. Two exterior drawers complete the piece, adding practicality without compromising aesthetic harmony. This writing desk is much more than a piece of furniture: it is a collector's item, a testament to a refined lifestyle and exceptional craftsmanship.********Period: Part 2, 19th century.
