George III Mahogany & Rosewood Crossbanded Secrétaire Press Chest
Status:This item has been sold Sold by:The Antique Furniture Company
A nice George III mahogany & rosewood crossbanded secrétaire press featuring stunning flame mahogany veneers, rosewood crossbanding to the secrétaire drawer and large oval crossbanded panels to the doors. Dating to c.1790 and in the Sheraton style it has a rectangular crossbanded and line inlaid top above a deep secrétaire drawer fitted with seven variously sized satinwood and line inlaid drawers with brass drop handles, four pigeon holes and a further 19in wide recess ideal for holding a laptop. The secrétaire drawer front has two realistic faux drawer fronts and drops to provide a generously sized work surface with inset green and gilt tooled leather.
The two panelled doors below opening to reveal a cupboard with three sliding trays, all standing on bracket feet. The original drawer handles have been replaced with brass swan neck handles and there are brass catches to the top and bottom of the left door. There is a key for the drawer lock. Lovely mellow colour, some watermarks and... dark marks to the top surface, slight bow to the drawer front, minor losses to beading and crossbanding, the wood has shrunk over the past 200 years causing a split to the left oval veneer and there are old repairs to sides where hinges are. Some ring and ink marks to the interior.

When buying it is important appreciate antiques have long histories of daily use and as such, over time they gain minor scratches, marks, knocks, shrinkage splits, signs of old woodworm, lifts and losses to veneer, which combine with care and years of polishing to create an individual character and patina. We describe the main flaws and those that fall outside of this bracket but cannot describe each marks separately and therefore suggest you do take the time to request extra photos. We do offer a 14 day money back guarantee if you are unhappy with your purchase but cannot refund the return shipping cost. If you are not sure please do not buy without clarifying or take the view that the only way to have it as near to new as possible is to have it fully and comprehensively restored.
For delivery we use a small carrier experience in carrying antique furniture. Delivery is usually within 31 days and the carrier will make arrangements with you directly. We can provide contact details of other carriers if required.
