Vintage Charles X-era Cedar Wood Note Holder, Circa 1830
An elegant ladies’ writing desk or vintage love note box from the Charles X era, crafted from burl cedar and accented with amaranth inlays.
It features a flap lined with red leather, revealing a carefully organized interior with a letter holder and two small drawers containing a powder compact and an inkwell.
The piece rests on an elegant cross-leg base, joined by a turned crossbar, mounted on its original casters.
The quality of the veneer, the warm hue of the cedar burl, and the understated, harmonious lines are characteristic of the elegance of Charles X furniture.
Of note: a crack in the marble with no chips and uniform wear on the leather.
