Historical information

The convex shapes and curved lines typical of the Rococo period, accompanied by a particularly refined veneer, with inserts in briar and darker woods, also characterise this bureau with drawers and flap, with its balanced and elegant lines. 

The interior conceals a single row of drawers and three large open compartments, the supporting elements of which conceal a series of drawers and secret compartments. The ebonised profiles, taken up by the mixtilinear edges framing the briarwood mirrors, are compatible with Nordic designs from the German or Austrian area.
