It was listed by Driscolls Antiques Ltd . Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Driscolls Antiques Ltd has dated this piece to the 1750s.
It has a beautifully figured fall front which when opened reveals a very unusual interior with serpentine shaped oak lined drawers. There is a central cupboard door and several pigeon holes. The lower section has four graduating oak lined drawers with beautifully pierced brass handles and key escutcheons. It stands on shaped bracket feet and has unusually small proportions for a Georgian bureau courtesy of the Edwardians who most probably adapted and restored this piece to its current size and style. It has aged to a rich medium shade of mahogany with a striking grain, good patina, is in very good condition and has been beautifully cleaned using a traditional form of wax finishing.
