Catalogue Note
Ce secrétaire à cylindre s'apparente à la production de Godefroy Dester notamment dans sa forme générale. On connait un secrétaire comparable vendu à Paris en 1999 (Hôtel Drouot, le 6 juillet 1999, lot 310). Ce secrétaire, également assez bas, ne présente pas non plus de tiroir dans sa partie supérieure ce qui lui confère une élégance particulière.
