19th Century Swedish Clock Secretary Circa 1820
-
Description
This exceptional 19th-century Swedish clock secretary, circa 1820, combines functionality with timeless Gustavian elegance. Crafted from pine, this impressive piece features a beautiful distressed painted finish in muted tones, adding to its rustic charm and historical authenticity. The upper section is designed with two tall cabinet doors flanking a central clock, framed by a gently curved bonnet top that highlights the neoclassical style characteristic of Swedish design from this period. Inside, the upper cabinet offers ample shelving for display or storage.
The midsection serves as a writing desk, with a drop-front panel revealing a series of small drawers, pigeonholes, and a central compartment, providing organized storage for correspondence and documents. Below, the lower cabinet features two doors that open to additional shelving, enhancing the piece’s practicality. The clock face is an elegant focal point, retaining its original charm with clean, simple numerals and hands, though its functionality should be verified.
This Gustavian clock secretary is not only a functional piece of furniture but also a striking statement of Swedish craftsmanship, blending practicality and aesthetics. Perfect for a study, living room, or entryway, it offers a stunning combination of storage, workspace, and decorative appeal. - More Information
