An exceptional early 20th-century Arts & Crafts secretary desk by Weis, showcasing refined craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and enduring functionality. Constructed in beautifully grained solid wood, this substantial piece is topped with a striking double leaded-glass bookcase, featuring geometric Gothic-inspired detailing that adds architectural elegance and visual depth.
The upper section opens to reveal generous shelving behind the original leaded glass doors—ideal for books, ceramics, or curated decorative objects. Below, the drop-front writing surface opens smoothly to a well-appointed interior fitted with letter compartments, small drawers, and organizing cubbies, creating a practical and charming workspace.
The lower cabinet offers excellent storage with two paneled doors and a central stack of drawers, all accented by original period metal hardware. A warm, well-developed patina throughout reflects age and quality, while the maker’s original Weis label affixed inside confirms its American origin and craftsmanship.
