This desk is identical looking on both sides. It has curved edges, a generous sized kneehole & sits on plinth bases with bun feet. Partners desks of this quality & size are very hard to find. This desk is a really nice example & is in excellent condition having just been French polished. I would date it to around the 1890’s period. It’s a heavy well made desk & comes apart into three sections for easier transportation.
