An elegant 18th-century French lady’s writing desk, or bureau de dame, crafted in warm walnut with graceful cabriole legs and serpentine lines characteristic of the Louis XV period. The drop-front writing surface reveals an interior fitted with petite drawers and cubby compartments, ideal for correspondence and keepsakes. The exterior showcases refined craftsmanship with bookmatched veneer patterns and delicate contours, while the original hardware and lock add authentic charm.
A beautifully aged patina enhances its historical character, making this piece both functional and decorative—a timeless addition to any study, bedroom, or salon.
When front is dropped open, the depth measures 33.25 inches.
