AA2000

Made in the George II style, in every way. The walnut cross-banded fall front, opening to reveal a fitted interior, of a walnut X-banded central door, flanked by two obvious upright colomn fronted secret drawers, then pigeon holes and small brass handled drawers.

Having a sliding ink well, once opened enabling one to locate the other two very secret hidden drawers. So secret that when I discovered them they seemed to have never been touched!

The carcass having a deep figured walnut top rail and small sized full front support lopers with brass knob handles, above three long graduated drawers, retaining the original brass drop handles and central escutcheons.
