Unique, fully refurbished vintage walnut writing bureau.
The original dark stain and varnish on this bureau was worn and marked, so it has been refurbished and updated to show the stunning grain of the walnut veneer, to contrast with the dark green finish.
Painted in 'Black Forest' from the Frenchic furniture paint range, with the flap and drawers finished in a satin varnish to bring out the lovely original grain variation. The interior shelves are highlighted with a gilt wax.
The drawers are dovetailed and run smoothly.
The supports come out as the drop flap is lowered. The original lock does not work so the key is for ease of opening. The writing surface is original and does have some marks from use on it as shown in the photos.
The bureau probably dates from 1930's, so a few small signs of its previous use as it is a vintage item, but refurbished to give a new lease of life and is a very practical, and unique item of furniture.
