Gustavian Desk

 

This is a rare example of a beautiful piece of furniture that has survived over 200 years without enduring a single stripping, new paint job or replaced pulls. A Gustavian writing desk (1772-1792) against a mirrored wall with a collection of new, old and found objects as well as a lino print, etching with charcoal and pencil of Pan created by my grandmother Grace Purpura.
