Walnut Veneered Center Desk.
Material: The cabinet is veneered in walnut wood, with a rich and warm grain that enhances its natural beauty.
It is enriched with fillets in lighter wood, boxwood, and green-stained pear, which create decorative motifs.
Structure and Shape: It has an elongated rectangular shape, typical of writing desks. The upper part has the owl's beak top also inlaid.
Under the top, the writing desk is equipped with a series of drawers and a sliding shelf.
Drawers: On the front, there are five drawers:
A larger central drawer. Two rows of smaller drawers on the sides, two per side, which offer additional space for storing documents and objects. The drawers are equipped with brass flush escutcheons.
Decorations and Inlays: The most distinctive feature of this desk is the geometric inlays that adorn both the top and the front of the drawers, and especially the sides of the cabinet. These inlays create a chromatic contrast with the darker walnut wood, adding a touch of elegance and craftsmanship.
On the sides, you can see inlaid panels with stylized and curvilinear motifs.
Legs: The desk rests on four tapered legs.
The legs are also decorated with linear or teardrop inlays that emphasize the slender shape.
The upper part of the legs has a narrowing that elegantly joins the structure of the cabinet.
Style: The overall style suggests an influence of the Louis XVI period, but with the addition of decorative elements typical of the late nineteenth century, which often reinterpreted previous styles with an emphasis on the richness of the materials and inlays.
The sinuous shape of the lower apron between the legs adds a touch of delicacy.
Emilian area of the late 19th century.
The dimensions are as follows: width 125, depth 60, height 83 cm.
