Elegant Vintage French Ladies' Writing Desk with Roll-Top & Leather Inset

Vintage ladies’ writing bureau

A refined and charming Elegant Vintage French Ladies Writing Desk with Leather Inset and roll top has been beautifully crafted from sycamore and cherrywood with striking kingwood inlay and delicate banding. This elegant piece showcases the timeless grace of French design, ideal for adding sophistication to any interior.

The classic roll-top tambour opens to reveal a fitted interior with small drawers and pigeonholes — perfect for storing letters, writing tools, or keepsakes. The writing surface is finished in a rich green tooled leather inset, bordered with fine gilt detailing that speaks to its quality craftsmanship.

Below the writing surface, two neat drawers offer practical storage, while the desk is secured with its original working brass key and escutcheon. The whole piece stands on slim, tapering fluted legs with gilt brass mounts, echoing the Louis XVI revival style.

Vintage French Ladies Writing Desk with Leather Inset was crafted c. early 20th century, this piece blends utility with beauty — its light-toned sycamore and cherrywood construction warmly contrasts with the decorative kingwood veneers, highlighting the craftsmanship of the era.

Poor quality control - maybe outlet store leftovers
Size: 11.5, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
The two shoes were not the same size. They were both labeled 11 1/2 but one shoe was larger than the other and the fit was poor. I returned the first pair and ordered a replacement. This time the shoes were close to the same size but too loose and the left one has sewing issues. I've bought Johnston & Murphy for years because of the quality. These were to replace an existing pair of burgundy penny loafers that have finally worn out (even after several heal/sole replacements). That is the expected quality. I suspect Nashville Shoe Warehouse may be handling shoes that didn't measure up for the quality; more like an outlet mall than getting the J&M quality I've come to expect. Update: went to Johnston & Murphy site to buy "direct" from the manufacturer. There were several recent reviews where the shoes were long and didn't fit properly. Genesco - please step up the manufacture / crafting of these classic shoes to the level of quality they used to have.

I usually wear 11.5's, but I buy 1/2 size smaller to accommodate for stretch. Leather relaxes.
Size: 11, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
5 STARS: These shoes are awesome. I keep coming back for more. I have major foot problems, have tried all kinds of shoes, orthotics, and inserts... but believe it or not, these shoes work better than any of that stuff. I wear them daily. I buy lots of them, for home, for church, and I'm getting my first pair of J&M boots today, for winters in Indiana... Brrrr

Way too narrow
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
I ordered a wide in this shoe, but it was still way too narrow. I had to return them. Otherwise, it looked like a nice quality shoe.
