www.fennelly.net
This very good quality late 19th century Mahogany Desk has very good proportions and particularly well figured mahogany with a most attractive deep colour and well patinated surface. It has a Tooled Leather top which is surrounded by a band of well figured mahogany with a molded and rounded edge. To either side of the desk top are a pair of concealed writing slides which retain their original leather writing surface. This type of extending writing surface is typical of French desks of this Period.
