A desk from the 1700's, yes please! This 18th century writing desk, found in Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, has a beautifully aged dark, gleaming finish that highlights the grain of the wood. Pieces like this were designed for everyday correspondence and bookkeeping, with a hinged front that folds down to create a writing surface while concealing storage inside. It includes one drawer and retains its key, a compact desk built for the quiet rituals of writing at home. Sylvie loves it as a small desk or bedside table where the fold-down front still invites the occasional handwritten note.
