Fine 19th Century François Linke Bronze Mounted Bureau a Cylindre Roll Top Desk
About the Item
Exhibiting the sought after superior fineness of Francois Linke, this late 19th century petit Bureau a Cylindre or roll top desk is a splendid creation. Mahogany with a deep plum color and richly adorned with finely chased bronze mounts typical of Linke, it is a petit writing chamber. Quite nice and should receive a fresh polishing, it has a cube parquetry on the roll top front and mounts depicting musical and bachnalian motifs, along with the usual garlands of roses, beading and many trims. The key does not remove. However, it works. Featuring a pullout / pull-out gilt tooled leather writing surface and an inside of three drawers and three cubby holes, as well as a lower full drawer.
Measurements: 31 inches wide x 21 inches deep x 41 1/2 inches high including gallery, 40 1/4 without.

François Linke
François Linke, the most important French ébéniste of his time. Born in Bohemia in 1855, Linke moved to Paris in 1881 where he established his now-famous workshop and showroom. Linke's superior work spread quickly through France and he soon eclipsed even the finest furniture houses of Paris. Today, Linke is counted among the most important furniture makers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and his work is dearly coveted by collectors. Linke is celebrated for designing highly innovative furnishings by infusing the Rococo style with the Art Nouveau trends of Paris and this Louis XV style desk exemplifies his highly original style.
