1930s Art Deco Burr Walnut Bureau with Queen Anne Style Cabriole Legs

£850.00

A superb 1930s Art Deco bureau, beautifully crafted in richly figured burr walnut and showcasing the elegant styling and exceptional craftsmanship of the period.

This beautifully proportioned bureau features a striking fall-front writing surface above two generously sized drawers, all veneered in wonderfully figured burr walnut with outstanding mirrored grain and warm, rich colouring throughout. The elegant Queen Anne style cabriole legs provide a graceful contrast to the clean Art Deco lines, creating a timeless and sophisticated piece suitable for both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Opening the fall-front reveals a thoughtfully arranged interior fitted with pigeonholes, small compartments and a central cupboard, offering practical storage for stationery, correspondence and everyday essentials. The original writing surface remains in excellent order, making the bureau as functional as it is decorative.

The burr walnut veneers display exceptional natural figuring and depth, enhanced by a traditional French polish that beautifully highlights the richness of the timber. Every angle of the bureau demonstrates the remarkable craftsmanship associated with quality British furniture from the 1930s.

An elegant and highly practical piece, offering both decorative appeal and everyday functionality.
