Superb Early 19th Century Post Regency Antique Burr Walnut Davenport By Famous London Makers Holland & Son
£ 5500
Description
Most certainly good enough to grace any top international fair this exquisite davenport is one of the finest we have ever seen. Holland & Son were pretty much the finest London cased cabinet makers of the post Regency period and this davenport would have been commissioned by the elite wealthy of the time for lady of the house. Exterior of stunning burr walnut veneers the lift up leather inset slop which slides forward for knee room and encloses pigeon drawers and secret catch to pop out inkwell and quill tray. Brushing slides and candle slide metamorphically transform the piece to a mini work station and flight of graduated drawers below. Brass gallery back, panel work and crisply moulded throughout. Stunning museum quality piece to add to any prize collection and offered by us at a very keen trade price indeed.Circa: C1840
