This refined Louis XVI style writing desk offers timeless elegance with practical versatility. The piece features two drawers with brass keyhole escutcheons and a working key, as well as two pull-out leaves (approximately 9" × 17.75" each) that expand the usable surface area.

The writing surface and leaves are finished in warm cognac leather with applied gold leaf trim, providing a rich textural contrast to the ebonized frame. Slender tapered legs with brass sabots complete the classic silhouette. A sophisticated piece that transitions seamlessly between office, bedroom, or entryway.

Condition: In very good vintage condition with light surface wear. Leather shows minor signs of use but retains good color and texture. Unmarked. Working key included.

Suggested Placement: Ideal as a writing desk, entryway console, or dressing table in traditional or transitional interiors.
