Description:
Elegant and delightful English dressing table with interiors, drawer bottoms and back in solid mahogany. Finished in every part with boxwood inlaid fillets while, in the contour of the drawers (4 in the upper part and 3 in the lower part), we find bois de rose inlays cm.1.5 wide. Supported by 4 truncated upside-down pyramid legs (h. cm.40) fitted with brown porcelain wheels. The height to the top is cm.77: under the top we find two drawers cm.46 long, cm.12 high while, descending, a single drawer cm.94 long, cm.15 high. On the sides of the shield-shaped mirror (cm.85x75) two pagoda-shaped elements cm.38 high with two small drawers on each side cm.24 long, cm.7 high. Original handles and locks of the period. The antique dressing table is in excellent condition but a complete restoration would enhance its beauty: the restoration is included in the price.
