Secretaire

Secretaire is a storage unit with drawers and a convenient surface. The space below the surface is organised into four large drawers, while the upper section has five small drawers, three with windows.
Its is manually finished on all sides using a plane.
The entire manufacturing and finishing process is carried out manually in our workshop.
The wood used for this piece is Juglans Regia – common Italian walnut; not dried but “raw”. This wood belongs to the Latin tradition of furniture-making and features an extremely compact fibre which can however be worked without too much difficulty; it is therefore highly suitable for household items.
Over time the wood hardens and becomes extremely resistant, and oxidises slightly to take on a progressively warmer amber colour.
