An exceptional George III figured mahogany secretaire chest.
The flame moulded top above a double faux fall front. Enclosing satin wood string inlaid drawers and rectangular storage pigeon holes and shaped brass drop handles. The fall interior with blind tooled leather above and long graduated drawers. All with the original brass swan neck handles, resting on shaped bracket feet.
Note: The beautifully faded reverse book matched veneers to the drawer fronts. This chest is a truly fine example and would make a great addition to any collection.
