Yet, it holds a delightful surprise: with the help of two side supports, the top unfolds to reveal a hidden writing desk. The surface is beautifully lined with green leather, delicately decorated with gilt tooling.
Produced by Burton Reproductions Limited, a well-known English maker of fine traditional furniture during the 1960s–1980s, this piece perfectly combines practicality and elegance. It functions both as a useful chest of drawers and as a discreet writing desk — a versatile addition for small apartments, stylish offices, or bedrooms where space and sophistication are equally prized.
