Louis XV-Style Mahogany, Kingwood and Marquetry Bureau de Dame, 19th century, the slant-front opening to a leather-lined writing surface and a variety of drawers and cubbyholes, raised on cabriole legs ending in sabots, the whole inlaid in floral marquetry patterns, h. 34", w. 30", d. 21".

The desk is in very good condition; structurally sound with a handsome, intact finish. There is some minimal lifting and shrinkage cracking to inlay commensurate with age. One piece of ormolu is off but only needs to be re-tacked in place. There are a few superficial surface scratches on a small area of left side. Key is present.
