Description

This Swedish escritoire writing desk, circa 1870, is made of solid pine and hand painted in a rag work technique that simulates grain. The drop-down fall reveals an interior painted in a contrasting green that retains its original colour and patina, with graduating drawers fitted with brass handles. With expected losses to the paintwork and two small pieces of moulding replaced, it remains ready for everyday use.
