Writing slope - Napoleon III Style - Brass, Ebony - Second half 19th century
Great writing lectern, made by the favourite of the French King, the great craftsman Tahan. It seems to be ebony-plated and takes up the Boulle style with the shapes made of brass finishes all along the desk. Large size, it stands out for its shapes and its general good condition. Once opened we find a paper organizer, useful as well to place the writing tools. The velvet is worn but easy to change. A real unique piece. Insured shipping. The images are part of the description.
