Description

A superb early Victorian mahogany secretaire bookcase having glazed doors to the top, enclosing an adjustable shelved interior. The base having a pull out secretaire drawer above two panelled cupboard doors. The quality is excellent and the mahogany is beautifully figured. The doors are flanked by square columns with carved corbels and the base is supported by turned columns on flat bun feet. The fitted interior of the secretaire drawer is beautiful with a leather writing surface and an arrangment of seven small satinwood drawers around two open pigeon holes and a small cupboard door with its original key. The piece also comes with a key for the drawer and the upper and lower cupboards.

It is a good narrow size, perfect for an alcove and it splits into two parts for easy transport.

It is in excellent original condition. It has been cleaned and gently polished, retaining the original patina. There are some minor signs of age and use, small light marks and small knocks but nothing detrimental and it displays well.

Archival Detail
Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
