Description: Super quality ladies slant lid desk attributed to R.J. Horner,
NYC. This piece features a dynamic bombe shape, extensive floral inlay with
mother of pearl accents on top, front and sides, and carving including
ladies heads in the front corners. It has cabriole legs with claw feet on
both front and back. The desk interior has two drawers, cubbies, and fine
quality brass hinges. The base has three drawers on top over two bottom
drawers. All of these have mahogany secondary wood. Horner would
often put stock numbers on his furniture and this one has "1922" on the
back referring to this rather than the date it was made. This piece has all
the quality features that make the furniture made by Horner so desirable -
style, inlay and carving!
