An Italian walnut writing table, late 19th century, with three frieze drawers and handsomely turned legs. The generous top provides a comfortable work surface, while the trio of drawers keeps correspondence and supplies at hand, the practical arrangement that made tables of this type the workhorses of Italian households. The warm walnut has mellowed to an even, glowing tone that shows the turning of the legs to advantage. Equally useful as a desk, a side table behind a sofa, or a hall table, it brings genuine period character at an approachable scale, just over a meter wide. The drawers run smoothly and the table stands sound, with wear consistent with age and daily use.
