Description

Elegant Milanese craftsmanship with playful detail. This 1950s, 60s drop front writing desk features a softly radiused case, slender legs, and a paneled fall-front that opens to a charming interior, complete with four hand-painted ceramic tiles and fitted storage. The layout is practical, six small interior drawers and open cubbies keep stationery organized, while three exterior drawers handle everyday essentials. The finish shows sunning, scuffs, and touch marks that read as authentic patina for its age. The lock cylinder does not function and the desk stays in the unlocked position. Includes display key. Clean inside. Ready to place and enjoy.
