Measures - 43" x 36 1/4" x 22 3/4"
An antique barrel roll desk of the Renaissance Revival era c1890 offers walnut and burl paneled construction with side drawers. Renaissance Revival furniture emerged in the mid-19th century as a nostalgic reaction to Rococo Revival, blending grand, classical Italian Renaissance and 16th-century French designs with Victorian sensibilities, characterized by rich dark woods (walnut, mahogany), intricate carvings (acanthus, scrollwork), and linear forms, becoming popular for both high-end custom pieces and mass-produced items, symbolizing status and a connection to historical grandeur amidst industrialization.
