Swedish 19th century two-part painted wood secretary circa 1856 with slant front desk, four doors and bracket feet. Adorned with a molded cornice, this secretary hosts two wooden doors in the upper part that open to reveal inner shelves, hidden drawers, and a spoon shelf - a testament to the thoughtful design characteristics of the period. The inner door panel takes personalization to another level with hand-painted monograms and the distinct date '1856', adding an intriguing historical narrative to this piece. Below the upper cabinet, a slant-front desk unfolds to present five dovetail drawers arranged around a central opening. This configuration, designed for practicality and organization, is perfect for stowing away stationery or cherished keepsakes.
