The fall front to the bureau can be dropped, and is held open by the two smooth pull out supports which are connected to metal brackets.

The desk interior opens to a green leather writing desk worktop, that is embossed with a beautiful gilt floral design.
The interior has eight smaller pigeon holes, and two side drawers.

The front of the bureau has a small upper drawer with three lower graduating drawers, perfect for storing documents, papers, books, or memorabilia.
All of the drawers are finished with figured metal handles and a raised lip surrounding the drawers.

There is a visual crack to the right side of the bureau, and to the lower left back foot, but this has no structural affect (see photographs).
