Antique Secretaire with Flap

Ancient slabbed flap secretaire. Completely veneered in walnut and walnut root, it dates back to the end of the 18th century. Wavy front marked by three drawers delimited by a projecting frame made of wood cut at the head, the feet are connected by a shaped apron. The straight drain conceals two compartments inside, two drawers centered by a herringbone-paved door; in front of this, a sliding shelf hides a secret compartment with two side drawers.

The sides with squares reflect the same scansion as the cabinet with cherry threads. Ideal for decorating the hall or entrance. This eighteenth-century flap has exceptionally small dimensions, comes from a private house in Milan, has been completely restored and is now in a good state of conservation. In the photo gallery you can see images of the furniture before the restoration.
