It was listed by Marylebone Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Marylebone Antiques has dated this piece to the 1890s.
It is of incredibly fine quality, with lots of lovely features.
There are two drawers on one side, the other has a door with built in letter holders inside. The top edge is beautifully carved, the inset leather top has been hand coloured and gold tooled. The base has a nicely designed stretcher and the legs have intricate carving all the way down. The back is also beautifully finished, so this can be used as a free standing item.
We have just had this re-polished to a very high standard, the condition is excellent for its age. There is just some minor wear and patina beneath the polish here and there.
