The upper doors open to reveal an exquisite interior fitted with multiple small drawers, pigeonholes, and a central locking cabinet—perfect for stashing mail, devices, and desk essentials out of sight between uses. Below, a slant‑front desk folds down to a generous writing surface, with more painted detail continuing across every inch so the piece looks stunning open or closed. The lower case offers three full-width drawers with original brass pulls and additional chinoiserie vignettes, providing ample storage for linens, files, or wardrobe overflow. Base and upper cabinet separate for easier moving and delivery. See less
