“Art Nouveau” Desk Secretary with drawers and filing cabinets
17,500 $
Inspired by the school of Nancy in France, Robert Lefbvre gives here the full measure of his mastery of the layout and wood. He uses the rare maple trees stitched from his sugar bush, the main thing in this furniture over 300 years! Their unique texture enhances the essential organic character in the art nouveau.
