Antique Louis XVI Style Roll Top Desk

Sale price$1,995.00

This exquisite antique French roll-top desk is a fine example of Louis XVI craftsmanship, dating to the late 18th to early 19th century. Featuring an intricate marquetry inlay across the tambour top and drawer fronts, the desk showcases the refined geometric patterns and attention to detail that defined the era.

Once the roll-top is smoothly lifted using its original key, the writing surface cleverly slides forward to reveal a practical workspace—ideal for both display and daily use. Inside, you’ll find two petite drawers, perfect for storing letters, stationery, or keepsakes, each detailed with finely carved fronts that echo the diamond parquetry motif.

The desk sits on elegant tapered legs and is adorned with gilt-bronze ormolu accents that reflect the sophistication of the Louis XVI period. A silk tassel on the original key completes the romantic, lived-in charm of this timeless piece.

Whether placed in a study, bedroom, or entryway, this desk is more than furniture—it’s a story waiting to be told. A legacy of French design, ready to inspire your next chapter.
