A classic Georgian style secretary desk dating from the 1940's has a bookcase top made of genuine mahogany. The secretary has graceful serpentine curves, carved claw and ball feet, and the pediment with the flame finial are authentic. It comes with its key, and the locks work on this vintage furniture. When the drop front is opened a pair of mahogan...y wooden supports extend automatically. While inside the secretary we find that, in addition to mail slots and drawers, it also contains a pair of hidden drawers posing as columns.This piece does display some minor wear, including scratches and a few dents at the top.
This desk was my Grandmother's who was the original owner.
