Refined
carved solid walnut writing desk, embellished with walnut veneer and cherry
wood inlays. The piece is in excellent condition, featuring a feather polish

legs, typical of the period, and its five front drawers, ideal for storing
objects, equipped with keys and locks in gilded bronze and lost-wax casting. At
the back are five additional faux drawers. Further refinement is provided by
the carvings in the solid wood on the legs and corners of the desk, featuring
geometric motifs. Furthermore, the inlays on the front, sides, back, and top

writing desk of great taste and elegance, capable of adding a touch of class to
