Bureau cabinet - Regency - Mahogany - 19th century

Regency is a sleek style around 1810. This desk is also tight, especially on the outside. It was after the French revolution and the Dandy style was introduced. Wigs were suddenly no longer worn, the man's hair cut in Greek style, tight trousers and shawls. A lot more liberal, too. This desk was hyper modern at the time. Beautiful desk made of solid mahogany and a surprising interior. Breathes the atmosphere of classic Italy. Satin and rosewood used to make this Italianising back wall. Italy was then very 'in' to take a grand tour and stay for at least a year to experience the culture . New felt pasted on the writing area. That writing part has a bulge under the felt. The drawers are expertly dovetailed. Ivory key entrance on the locker.
