Description

A delightful Edwardian Sheraton Revival mahogany small writing table with satinwood banding and boxwood line inlay. The bow ended top features a central hand-stained cow hide green leather inset scriber with gilt tooling, and the most unusual feature of a lift-up lid to each of the bow ends, opening to reveal fitted writing compartments. Below the top is a single mahogany lined drawer with hand-cut dovetail joints, attractive brass knob handles, and original lock. The table is raised on elegant square section tapering legs with original brass plate castors on brown china wheels.
