An impressive early 19th-century mahogany secretaire sideboard that opens to reveal a fitted writing interior with banks of small drawers, pigeonholes and a long lower drawer, all with turned knobs and fine line inlay. Closed, it reads as a smart two-drawer over cupboard sideboard with shaped bracket feet and inlaid corner motifs; open, it becomes a fully-fledged writing cabinet with real presence for a study, hallway or “old money” living room.

Honest wear throughout with scars to the top edge, small veneer losses and marks from long use, interior wear to the writing surface and a couple of replaced/aged knobs; structurally solid and the fall and doors operate as they should. A versatile statement piece that can serve as a hidden desk, letter station or drinks/bar cabinet while styling beautifully against art and rugs.

Measurements: 124 × 55 × 110 cm (48.8" × 21.7" × 43.3").
