Being offered for sale is this American Empire Feathered Mahogany & Walnut Butlers Desk / Chest circa 1850. This fine period 19th century chest / desk offers gorgeous feather mahogany on the front with a solid walnut top and sides with the original wood pulls and dove-tailed ends on the drawers,all the locks intact but we do not have the key.
This piece measures 45 inches in height,41 3/4 inches wide and 19 3/4 inches deep and this piece weighs approximately 125 lbs. The fold down writing portion of the desk measures 32 1/2 inches in height to the floor,35 3/4 inches wide and 17 1/4 inches deep
This is a fantastic American Empire piece that offers an abundance of storage space as well as a great desk area with a multitude of small storage drawers and will surely be a fabulous addition to about any room of your home. This piece is quality built, solid and sturdy and boasts of the fine craftsmanship of 160 years ago. There is a small piece of veneer missing on the left by the top drawer bottom, and a couple piece if missing veneer on the right side column near the base, and back right foot has a chip of wood missing.....nothing major in my opinion for a piece of this age.
