19th Century Swedish Black-Painted Writing Desk with Brass Fittings

Elegant 19th-century Swedish writing desk in pine, finished in a rich black patina that highlights its refined Gustavian-inspired form. The desk features three drawers adorned with horizontal millings and fitted with original brass handles and working locks—one key included. The tapering legs, decorated with double millings, provide a graceful architectural balance while maintaining sturdiness and proportion. Compact in size yet highly functional, this piece offers ideal dimensions for modern workspaces without compromising on character. The surface retains a beautifully aged texture that adds depth and authenticity. A fine example of Swedish craftsmanship, the desk combines practicality with classical design elements, making it versatile for use as a writing table, console, or small vanity. Its understated elegance and timeless form allow it to blend seamlessly into both traditional and contemporary interiors.
