On sale an extraordinary late 18th century secretaire abattant (1780-1810), measuring 95cm wide x 40cm deep x 148cm high, with its outstanding architectural features pointing to Northern Italian craftsmanship, though showing strong French Louis XVI influences in its design and construction.

The exceptional quality of the walnut veneer work, with its dramatic fan pattern and the refined proportions, represents the highest standards of Italian cabinetmaking during the Neoclassical period. The original brass fittings, leather writing surface, and intricate interior compartments are testament to the sophisticated taste of Northern Italian nobility of the time. ✨

A remarkable piece currently undergoing careful restoration to preserve its authentic beauty. 🗝️
