Beals of Maine Secretary Hutch
A stately 2 peace secretary hutch designed by Thomas Beals in Portland, Maine. A classic example of quality cabinet work utiizing solid maple throughout. Occasional secretary and writing desks from Beals earlier production days can sometimes be found but this two part design is showcased by the rare top part cabinet featuring aged brass lattice metalwork over glass panels. Solid brass hardware is used throughout and is represented in the original Chippendale style bail pulls.
Over 64” tall and 26” wide, but with a depth of only 15.5” this desk fits just as well in a bedroom or small study. Originally crafted sometime in the mid 1900’s, it is missing one of the small interior drawers and shows some slight markings and wear to the open writing surface due to its previous use. Key to the locking hardware is also lost.
