A brief history of the secretary desk
Born in the 18th century under the impetus of brilliant cabinetmakers like Jean-François Oeben, the secretary desk is the guardian of intimate correspondence. Its fall-front reveals a "stepped interior," a set of small drawers and niches designed for surgical organization. Some models even hid secrets: invisible drawers, activated by springs concealed under a molding. Also called a "fall-front desk," it remains the ideal piece to hide one's workspace with a simple, elegant gesture.
