图录说明
In its original iteration with the gateleg base, this rare and very unusual desk operated in the same manner as abureau de changeuror moneychanger's desk, of which a few examples veneered in Boulle marquetry survive including a table formerly in the Desmarais Collection sold Sotheby's Paris, 28 June 2023, lot 405 and another from the Mavromatis Collection sold Sotheby's London, 8 July 2008, lot 3.
