Antique Bureau

£2,225.00

Antique bureaux under 92 cm are at a premium. This is made of good Spanish mahogany, and the drawers are oak lined. The fitted interior is typical, with drawers, pigeon holes and secret compartments. The shell inlaid fall front is an Edwardian replacement, to cater for the demand for inlay, however, this piece has been as it is now for around 100 years, and no way detracts, except from a purely academic perspective.
All is in good order, the drawer runners having been serviced in the last 10 years. An unusual feature, are 2 cut-outs in the back, for ease of carrying - like a piano.
