A wonderful antique William IV period mahogany leather top writing table / desk. This was made in England, it dates from around the 1830-1840 period.

It is very well made and is a lovely size. It sits on turned solid turned and fluted mahogany legs, the drawers have beautiful turned mahogany handles. The drawers also have fine hand cut dovetailed joints, the top edges are nicely moulded. This has a gorgeous inset leather writing surface that has been hand coloured and gold tooled.

We have had this recently re-polished, it is in excellent condition for its age. There are various small marks and indentations beneath the polish, commensurate for age and adding to the lovely patina.
