Early 18th Century George Il “Bureau Bookcase”

Made of deeply patinated walnut. Crowned with a dentil cornice above original arched mirrored doors retaining the original gilded carved moulding.
Flanked by fluted columns with two candle slides over a book-matched fall front concealing a beautiful stepped interior with 6 drawers, 2 secret drawers with columns, and a red leather writing surface. The four drawers are cock-beaded and inlaid with herringbone stringing—all retaining the original brass hardware and shaped bracket feet. Made in England circa 1730.
