This is a large Desk Top Writing slope/Captains Desk Circa 1890. The tambour top opens on the opening of the front drawer and reveals a rising superstructure with secret drawer. The folding front slope opens to reveal a writing area and storage. This is a very striking piece and one might say ... The Lap Top of the 19th Century.
