To the top of the table is a very good quality green and gold tool leather and the top of the table is finished with thumb moulding to the edges. Below the top, sits three working hand dovetailed drawers, which have been constructed from mahogany drawer linings (this is a sign of quality). The drawers feature the original turned brass handles and escutcheons. The table sits on four pretty ring-turned tapering legs, which terminate in a baluster turning at the bottom. This is a truly classic design from the late Victorian period. All in all, this is a very pretty and super quality-writing table.
This table features a rich red / brown mahogany colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.
