Lot 139
A 19th century American 'Wooton' walnut secretary desk, having an ornate shaped gallery, the hinged front opening to reveal a comprehensive maple fitted interior, the recessed handles inscribed 'Manufactured by The Wooton Desk Co., Indianapolis, Ind, Pat Oct 1874', on scrolled feet and castors98w x 75d x 173h cmOverall appears to be basically complete and usable. It was collected from a home where it had been for some time, so it is unrestored and dirty. The main problem is the hinges on the fall which are loose on one side, so the fall drops and is heavy, without any supports. Some of the finials are broken and missing, although we have some inside. There are no signs of woodworm, although the dirt on the back, could be mistaken for it. There is general wear and signs of age, such as around the feet, as you might expect from age. Wear around the locks and slight veneer damage. Stained inside and worn. Overall dry, but the timbers appear to be flat.
