The two-piece design combines a glass-front bookcase with interior shelving, a rare cylinder roll-top desk with fitted storage, and a lower cabinet with paneled doors. Crafted in walnut with burled veneer accents and original brass pulls, this secretary highlights the rich detail and craftsmanship of the Renaissance Revival style. With its impressive 84” height, warm patina, and elegant presence, this versatile piece serves beautifully as a functional desk, bookcase, or statement cabinet in a study, library, or living room.
