The drawer fronts continuous grain is on display, free of dividers and balanced with simple nickle plated knobs. The case top and sides flaunt a wrapped grain pattern, joined with half-blind dovetails. The stretcher is a tapered, bent lamination of six walnut shop-sawn veneers. Each end tenons into the turned legs. The feet are capped with hand turned nickle-plated copper sleeves.
Made of Black Walnut with Tulip Poplar secondary wood and Sugar Maple drawer parts. Within hides a secret compartment… perhaps secret no more. The desk is finished with boiled linseed oil, followed by multiple coats of hand rubbed shellac and then paste wax.
