This exquisite 19th-century French writing desk, or bureau de dame, showcases the elegance and craftsmanship of the Louis XV style. The desk features a finely figured burr walnut veneer with delicate floral marquetry inlay, accentuated by ornate gilt-bronze mounts and escutcheons.
The shaped top is surmounted by a superstructure fitted with four small drawers and letter racks, framed with pierced brass galleries. The serpentine frieze contains a single long drawer, offering practical storage while preserving graceful proportions. Standing on slender cabriole legs adorned with gilt-bronze chutes and sabots, this desk exudes refinement from every angle.
A perfect blend of function and artistry, this bureau is ideal for an elegant study, drawing room, or as a statement piece in any interior.
