Description

A rare and characterful early 18th century walnut bureau dating to circa 1720, of particularly small and desirable proportions. The fall-front opens to reveal a simple and practical fitted interior with a series of pigeon holes, retaining its original iron hinges and lock plate—features that speak to its early date and honest construction.

The exterior is fitted with three long graduated drawers, each retaining period-style brass drop handles, and stands on a shaped bracket plinth base. Of special note is the survival of the original ironwork to the interior, including the hinges and lock mechanism—details rarely found intact and highly indicative of its early 18th century origin.

The walnut has developed a wonderfully rich colour and patina over time, with the expected wear, marks and surface character that give the piece authenticity and charm.
