Early 19th Century Swedish Two-part Secretary

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
This early 19th-century Swedish two-part secretary is a truly unique piece, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and artistry. The upper section features a beautifully carved cornice, adding an elegant architectural detail to the design. The lower section opens to reveal a meticulously designed interior with intricate marquetry on the drawers, demonstrating the high level of skill involved in its creation.

The secretary is crafted from pine, a traditional material in Swedish furniture, and finished in a soft, neutral tone characteristic of the Gustavian style. The exterior carvings, including decorative panels and molding, add depth and texture, while the practical design offers both functional storage and visual appeal.

Ideal for a study, living area, or bedroom, this Swedish secretary combines sophisticated detailing with practical functionality, making it a standout piece in any interior.

This is an antique and having been around for a long time, it will show signs of wear. Antique pieces have very much sought-after character and associated flaws. Please review photos for condition & contact us with questions!
