This desk is both highly decorative and unusually functional. The well-figured walnut is complemented by delicate inlays. It is diminutive and interestingly designed. Instead of a fixed writing slope, the frieze drawer pulls out to reveal a leather writing surface that can be raised or lowered for reading or writing, supported by a movable strut. When the drawer is closed the surface is flat and suitable for a lamp or ornament. The superstructure is enclosed by panelled doors and surmounted by a pierced gallery. The lower cupboard is fitted with shelves. As a desk or bedside cabinet it would a striking and unusual addition to any room.
