Mahogany Middle Desk, Return From Egypt Style – Early 20th Century

This solid and veneered mahogany bureau plat, in the style of the Return of Egypt, dating from the early 20th century, is an exceptional piece of furniture. The top is covered in a green leather with vignette and patterns, adding a touch of sophistication and refinement. Two sliding shelves extend the work surface, providing additional functionality. The desk opens on the left with two drawers, a larger central drawer and on the right a drawer with two fronts containing a reserve equipped with a lock. These drawers are decorated with entrances decorated with gilded bronze swans and authentic locks, testifying to the attention to detail and the quality of manufacture. The uprights of the desk are decorated with caryatids and palmettes, adding an artistic and historical dimension to the whole. The whole rests on four feet with lion claw sabots, giving the desk stability and a majestic appearance. This desk is not only a functional piece of furniture, but also a work of art that perfectly illustrates the style and aesthetics of the return from Egypt. ******** Period: Early 20th century Excellent condition.
