Description :

A refined Louis XVI period writing table, crafted in France circa 1780, veneered in finely grained hardwood with contrasting marquetry. The rectangular top is enclosed by a delicate pierced gilt bronze gallery and centered with an inset leather writing surface, beautifully tooled with a subtle Greek key border. The warm patina of the leather complements the rich tonal variations of the veneer, arranged in an elegant geometric composition characteristic of the late 18th century.

The single drawer is decorated with trellis marquetry and fitted with a finely cast gilt bronze escutcheon and decorative pull. The restrained ornamentation reflects the neoclassical refinement of the Louis XVI era. The table stands on slender, tapered legs highlighted with delicate inlaid reserves, terminating in original gilt bronze sabots and small castors, adding both grace and practicality.

The interior construction in solid oak confirms its 18th-century authenticity. The gilt bronze elements display a soft, natural patina consistent with age.

A sophisticated and versatile piece, ideal as a writing desk, side table, or refined accent within both classical and contemporary interiors.

Dimensions : 98 cm x 55 cm x H 74 cm
