Louis XV Genoese Walnut Veneer Inlaid Bureau with Secretary Desk

An exceptional Italian Genoese walnut veneered  and inlaid fall front bureau dating back to the second half of 18th century, of  Genoese origin.

The fall opening to a fitted interior of six small drawers, pigeon holes and one central small door with an engraving.

The waving front of this antique Italian cabinet shows two short, small and convex drawers above two long and deep drawers; the scalloped lower front is part of the lower drawer. The whole raised on cabriolet feet.

The veneer is placed obliquely, in a herringbone pattern, within jutting frames and makes this antique Italian bureau very elegant. It comes from a private house in Milan.
