Oak Secretary Bureau With Painted Finish From Sweden Circa 1760-1800

This oak secretary or “bureau” reflects the grace and class of Swedish styling from the early 1800’s.
The dramatic serpentine drawers and carved outer panel of the drop down desk add a romantic touch, accented by brass pulls and key escutcheon.
The traditional interior with 12 unique, small drawers and central “cubbie” with two petite drawers offers perfect space to organize.
Under the desk top is three standard large size drawers and upper narrow drawer, each has two brass pulls used to open drawer.
It was later professionally painted with an exceptional layered salmon/desert pink exterior complimented by a black interior, updating the look while adding to the classic Swedish styling.
Restored, drawers function, desk top is solid and ready to be used and enjoyed. Please enlarge photos to appreciate the fascinating painted finish distressed perfectly to fit the age and grace of this attractive oak secretary.
Locks no longer function. One key will be included to use as pull only.
All scratches, cracks, dings, nicks, age related separation (often drawer bottoms), missing pieces or other imperfections are reflective of age and do not detract from the beauty nor function of this impressive secretary.
