A good French Poudreuse veneered in walnut and king wood, with brass handles and ormolu mounts to the feet, overall marquetry that enhances its appearance with the use of contrasting veneers.

The interior is fabulous, the middle section pulls out to reveal a well and a mirror, the two side flaps open for extra workspace, and reveal a silk lined box, the front also has a tooled leather writing slide, there are then a further three drawers again lined in silk.
