An excellent antique Victorian secretary well crafted in warm brown walnut with decorative figured veneers adding to the Eastlake design. The secretary comes in three sections, including a top hutch with a decorative foliate flourish on the crest, leading down to a drop-front writing surface with a series of small slotted compartments at the back. The lower case sports a drawer with beautiful carving at the center, flanked by highly decorative handles; finishing with a double door cabinet opening to a spacious interior.
Condition
The key does not work perfectly and may not be original. The middle case can come off but requires tools to access the screws from inside. Scuffs, nics, finish wear, and minor warping commensurate with age and use. Overall a very handsome piece.
