About the Item

Georgian butler's secretary hand-made in the United Kingdom in the early 1900s using mahogany and decorated with mahogany veneer. The Secretary features a top bookcase section with glass doors and three shelves decorated with inlay on the front edge. The bottom section features a flip top secretary pull out desk, over three drawers. From the outside the pull out portion of the desk is decorated with faux drawer fronts, making it look like the entire bottom section is a chest of drawers. The drawer fronts are all decorated with inset escutcheons and horizontal mahogany veneer. The piece has very straight lines and the only movement is provided by the hand-carved crown molding and the striation of the grain of the mahogany, which are more prominent due to the bleaching of the wood. Overall this is a beautiful and elegant piece that can be used on a daily basis, its height requires a rather spacious room, but its light color make it look much less imposing than it really is.
