Fine Quality Two Part Victorian Walnut Cylinder Secretary with
most unusual tiger maple bookcase interior (see photo). The handsome cresting
has three dimensional carvings, burl panels, and very fancy carved side stiles with
more burl and incising. The doors are arched with picture frame moldings. The
roll opens to reveal a very attractive interior with birdseye maple. The cylinder
is double slotted with beautiful burled recessed panels. There are three original adjustable
interior shelves. The two small top side finials are missing. There is a center
drawer and double cupboard in the base, all of which is made from thick, heavy walnut
stock. With the combination of the rare tiger maple interior and quality of construction,
this beautiful secretary is one of the better forms made during this time period.
