A rare bureau, all the veneers and mouldings and bun feet in burr oak of very good colour, the fall and the drawers cross banded in bog oak. The unusual pillared interior is centred by a mirrored alcove, the scagliola floor of which is inlaid with a celestial coronet, and the date 1699. The engraved brasses appear to be original, although the drops have been re fixed.
