Scroll down for 8 more photos
This is a beautiful inlaid tambour desk with a striking drawer design featuring a prominent central panel.
This desk is a period desk that has had restoration to its internal structure, but visually, it is complete. There are historic shrinkage cracks on the side panels and some of the inlay is beautifully repaired. The legs and all exterior parts are original with no breaks. The backboards are old, period replacements. It’s not for the purist, but it certainly has an impressive decorative look and is priced well under the value of a mint example.
Height: 44 in. Width: 37 in. Depth: 20 1/2 in.
