A Fine Satinwood Writing Bureau A fine and elegant satinwood writing bureau, beautifully crafted and presented in good condition. The bureau is raised upon shaped bracket feet and is fitted with an arrangement of three graduated drawers, (the top drawer appears to be two drawers) the drawer fronts and fall decorated with delicate and decorative inlaid detailing. The drawers are fitted with particularly attractive swan-neck handles, adding further elegance to the piece. The fall-front opens to reveal a beautifully fitted and well-appointed interior, comprising a series of shaped drawers and graduated pigeonholes, together with a concealed secret well, accessed beneath a sliding cover. The fall is fitted with a replacement leather writing surface, finished with hand-applied gilt tooling and traditional blind tooling, providing a suitably luxurious writing area. A particularly attractive and practical example of a satinwood writing bureau, combining refined proportions, decorative craftsmanship and a wonderfully appointed interior. Presented in good condition.
