FAQs

A bureau plat is a French-style flat writing table featuring a flat surface, often inset with leather, supported by four legs with drawers incorporated into the frieze.

Nineteenth-century writing tables were frequently crafted using fine hardwoods such as burr walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, adorned with gilded bronze ormolu mounts and gilt-tooled leather writing surfaces.

Look for hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, natural age-related oxidisation on metal fittings, original hand-tooled leather surfaces showing subtle wear, and veneer applied over solid hardwood carcases.

Position the writing desk near natural light sources, paired with a modern chair or leather armchair, and accessorise with contemporary desk lighting or metallic accents.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft cloth and apply beeswax polish periodically, while treating the inset leather with a specialised leather conditioner to prevent drying.
