Ancienne commode à abattant du XVIIIe siècle en noyer et ronce de noyer –

I am selling a charming drop-leaf secretary from the 18th century in an elegant 'Barocchetto' style (Italian Baroque from Genoa). It is fully original. This furniture is distinguished by its refined artisanal workmanship and serpentine front, which gives it great harmony and much elegance as a whole. Main features: Materials and finishes: Walnut veneer and burl walnut, embellished with delicate moldings and geometric fillets on the front, sides, and drop leaf. Exterior structure: Three large drawers at the bottom, equipped with locks and keys, topped with a drop leaf. Interior: The opening of the drop leaf reveals a comfortable writing surface and a classic internal layout composed of small drawers and compartments for documents. Details: The furniture rests on four curvy legs typical of the period. It shows signs of aging — perfectly normal and full of charm — that attest to its authenticity.
