Traditional Oak Drop-Front Secretary Desk with Glass Doors, 20th Century

A compact American oak secretary with a writing desk on top and enclosed storage below. The slant lid locks with the included key and folds down to a writing surface, with cubbies and a small drawer inside for mail and supplies. Underneath are two glass-paned doors with pressed metal knobs, a shelf behind them, and a full-width drawer with machine-cut dovetails and ornate brass-toned bail pulls. A carved scroll crest tops the back gallery, and the curved side panels run down to form the feet.

Approximate measurements: 30" W x 12" D x 54" H
