Unusual Pair of Secretaires.
French c 1945
A matched pair of metamorphic
secretaires in a straight grained quartered
walnut veneer. All metal work in nickel-plated
bronze. Cleverly designed to provide two writing
positions: with only one flap extended as a
normal secretaire, or with both flaps extended
as a good size desk space (could even be a
breakfast/dining table in an interior where
space is at a premium) Legs screw in to the
underside of each flap to provide excellent
stability. Lower section with a single
shelf. Each secretaire stands on a stylish
tapered foot with nickelled bronze trim detail.
Dimensions are: 73" high (185cm) 31 1/2" wide
(80cm) and 18" deep (46cm) - with one flap
lowered the depth is 35" (89cm) and with both
flaps lowered 70" (180cm).
