Although in one piece, we will choose to describe it in two stages.
The upper part forming secretary opens by a slaughter garnished on the front of a rectangular mirror. He discovers six small drawers with chopped draw buttons. This space also consists of a niche, embellished on the front by a panel cut into arches supported by columns. This decor is adorned with bronzes: bores in its angles, lion's head in the middle. The work area is covered with current green leather, embellished with a central sticker and, on the edge, two friezes, one golden, the other, more discreet, on a hard background.
The lower part, wider than the first, is similar to a console, opening a belt by a drawer mounted in Aronde tails. It is based on four straight amounts, ended by four feet of larger dimensions, and linked together by a spacer with the concave facade.
The top of this piece of furniture is a granite marble, overlooking a tray around the bevelled.
The slaughter as well as the drawer with inputs of worked bronze locks and each has its key.
We will appreciate the presence of many mascarons, wrapped crowns and other bronze falls on the uprights and feet of this pretty piece of furniture, with the structure that is both singular and functional.
