Here is a secretary in the most understated style of Directory<\/a>. It is constructed of solid beech and conifer, and veneered with mahogany and mottled mahogany. It is very simply adorned with bronze handles in the form of lion heads holding rings in their mouths. The keyhole escutcheons are in the shape of shields. The interior has seven drawers, the middle one of which locks. The drop-front closes with a period three-point lock. The lower section has three drawers, to which Louis XVI-style pull rings have been added. The front uprights terminate in lion's paws carved from walnut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from two small repairs to the lower doors, this piece of furniture has never been restored. One only needs to look at its veneer, which has retained its original thickness of approximately 3 mm. However, it has undergone some alterations: the two rear feet are missing, and the claw feet have been trimmed by two centimeters on the sides. Sections of the cornice and a piece of veneer are missing from the left side. The doors and drop-front are cracked, and the drawer bottoms, as well as the top and back panels, have shrunk. A keyhole escutcheon is missing from the left door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The restoration therefore consisted of reattaching a few elements, such as the cornice and the plinth, and of reinforcing the gaps in the doors and the drop-leaf. I also added a new piece of mahogany veneer to the left side, and remade the rear legs in beech, veneered with mahogany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I grafted and sculpted the front legs in walnut, then reinforced the grafts with a hide glue primer. I then reapplied the lacquer, trying to recreate the original color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After oxidizing the new mahogany veneer pieces, I applied a French polish finish. I cleaned and restored the lock and key. The old leather, which was too damaged and torn, was replaced with burgundy leather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
