The secretary desk, or secrétaire à abattant, emerged in 18th-century France as a functional and stylish piece of furniture. Under Louis XV's reign (1715–1774), the design evolved to emphasize asymmetry, naturalistic motifs, and elaborate ornamentation, hallmarks of the Rococo movement
This particular secretary desk has ornate gilt-bronze mounts, and high quality massive oak wood.
