Title: Antique Edwardian Inlaid Mahogany & Satinwood Desk
Description:
Antique Edwardian Inlaid Mahogany & Satinwood Desk Circa 1900
An elegant Edwardian mahogany desk of desirable small proportions, raised on slender square tapering legs terminating in spade feet.
The shaped top is inlaid with a central shell motif within satinwood and boxwood lines, echoing the shell inlay to the cylinder front above.
The superstructure is fitted with a central compartment flanked by two cupboards, each door decorated with classical urn inlay and opening to reveal fitted pigeonholes with shaped fronts.
The central lower section retains its drawer and inkwell recess, with two inkwells present.
The desk apron is fitted with a long central drawer flanked by two short drawers, all edged with line inlay and retaining attractive lion mask ring handles.
The colour is warm and even throughout, with a pleasing patina consistent with age.
Keys are present for the locks, though there is some stiffness to the catches.
The central cylinder door with looseness.
The fitted interiors are attractive and very well made.
