Petite Chinese Seven-Drawer Desk, c. 1900
About the Item
This petite elmwood desk charms with its unusual blend of east and west styles. Made in Northern China, the desk dates to the late 19th century, a period that saw great cultural exchange in art and design. Perhaps commissioned by a foreigner or expatriate, this petite desk is an example of cultural melding at its finest, with a design that at once feels unique and familiar. We love this little desk as a charming sewing table or a child's work space.
