A Chippendale style secretary desk, crafted from mahogany, dating to approximately 1930, exemplifies the aesthetics of the Chippendale revival period, featuring a distinctive block front design and shell carvings. The desk presents the classic slant-front form, which, when opened reveals a writing surface and interior compartments. The fall-front is adorned with three prominent hand-carved shells, mirroring the three shell-carved panels on the upper tier of drawers below. The lower section features a block front configuration, characterized by a central concave block flanked by convex blocks, housing multiple drawers. Measures - 37.25"H x 30"W x 18"D
