A Victorian marquetry inlaid figured walnut writing table, with raised shelf and frieze drawer, W.3ft D.1ft 9in. H.3ft 1in.
Estimate £400-600

Overall a good rich original colour, the leather inset to the top may well be original, this is worn and scuffed but certainly restorable, ormolu banding to the right side of the top has split at one point and needs re-attaching, no key for the lock, one complete finial to the top of the feet is missing, two of the others have lost their extreme ball finial, only one is fully intact, otherwise all the ormolu mounts are present, overall this is a good piece of furniture.
