95 - A grand, tiered, double-body desk in the Neoclassical style, crafted from wood and walnut veneer, with chiseled and gilded bronze oak trim. The three-part upper section, topped by an openwork gallery, features four drawers, five compartments, three shelves, and four slatted doors concealing twelve compartments and two side compartments. The central section opens to reveal nine drawers, a sliding pull-out, and an inclined surface divided into three flaps covered in green leather with gold-leaf detailing featuring a small-scale Greek fret pattern. These reveal a writing desk, six drawers, and two secret side compartments. The entire piece rests on two base units that open at the front via two doors and four drawers—two narrow ones in the plinth and two side doors. Chiseled and gilded bronze fittings: lock plates with a row of pearls, rings descending onto rosette-shaped medallions, pull knobs, and sunflower motifs. Northern Europe. Probably Sweden. Early 19th century. Circa 1800.
