SOLD Antique Victorian Burl Walnut Cylinder Secretary Bookcase Desk

We are pleased to be offering today this true Victorian burl walnut secretary bookcase desk that dates from the Eastlake era of the 1870s to 1880s.  This desk is truly Eastlake as it has the circular dove tail that was used for a short period of time and really pin points the date range of the desk.  It came out of a pretty nice estate on the east coast.  It appears to have been refinished years ago in a medium walnut stain finish.  It has all the hardware intact.  All the burl walnut panels are intact.  The only thing we did was replace the felt on the pull out tray as the other one was stained.  The desk comes with the original wavy glass on the bookcase glass doors top, three adjustable shelves that appear to be true original shelves, the doors have burl panels on all four sides with rosette covers and even comes with a key.  It has a crown molded top, beautiful burl walnut center and the pull tray.  The base cabinet sports three graduated drawers with the circular round Eastlake dove tail and carved columns coming down both sides and lots of burl walnut.  The overall size is 40 inches at the widest point, 23 inches deep, 31 inches high to the writing surface and 87 inches high overall.  One thing I would like to add is that these desks usually have white wood sides or non walnut sides, but this one is truly all walnut as you can see in the numerous pictures.  The original backboards are all in place.  The desk is a nice original desk.  The more I look at it, it appears like they just put a clear coat of shellac on it to brighten it up back years ago.  It will be FREE SHIPPING for this desk if you are within our normal area.  Please contact us prior to purchase to confirm that you are within our normal area.
