About the Item
We are delighted to offer for sale this stunning original Napoleon III French Empire desk with gilt bronze oversized fittings
A very decorative and collectible desk in period lightly restored condition throughout. The desk comes complete with all original gilt bronze fixtures and fittings including two keys for the locks. It has four large drawers to the front, the left drawer is a very large single drawer with a safe drawer inside, the top has been removed at some point, I can have it remade for a fee
There are some mouth watering signs of the original maker, a pencil signature to the base which is very faded, the gilt bronze feet are serial number stamped which looks to read BG699
The patina is lovely and original however its period so has all the normal ware and tare marks you would expect from a piece this age. I can have it fully restored to include a wash back and French polish should the new owner wish, I can have a new cattle hide leather surface fitted, basically I can have it made gallery perfect for a price if that’s what the new owner is looking for
As it stands we have cleaned waxed and polished it from top to bottom and it looks lovely
