This desk and chair are also made by Napoleon Le Grand about 100 years ago. This was in an auction a few month ago. I did bid on it because I have the cupboard (see my previous post) but didn't buy it.
I just had bought my Onder den Sint Maarten desk 3 weeks earlier and I don't need 2 of them.
The cupboard and desk are very rare items and today I kind of regret not buying it. But the desk was in a dirty state and I like the pigeons a lot less than the crows to be honest. Never the less I missed out on having a very unique couple.

Thanks Bellin68.
Thanks everybody for the loves.
Thanks vetraio. Me too, it also has these animaldecorations on the armrests. It's not clear to see, but it's visible.

You too Bellin68, thanks.
your very welcome Bazelmania. i posted the A.D. COPIER:)
dang -- what a horse to let get out of the barn -- but as least you have the other -- i am sooooooooooooo envious
Love the desk but the chair doesn't look to be comfortable.
I've sat on it and it was more comfortable as one would imagine. And thanks blunderbuss.
Yes epson233, and it's way beyond the horizon I'm afraid. Rgretting it more and more, but I should be happy with the other one.
And thanks, the envious part is a big compliment I guess.
Thanks for the loves everybody. It is a remarkable set.
very, very cool!
Thank you Lauren !!
Thanks everybody for the loves. Remarkable that I get the most loves on an item I don't have (but should have bought.......)
your very welcome Balzelmania:)
nevertheless i am still jealous not envious though thanx for showing i feast my eyes all over it
Thank you artislove. It's a real work of art and I'm glad that I do have the cupboard.
you are very welcome bazelmania and yes i agree it is best to look at what you have then regret what you have not
That is so true. The main pity is that I didn't bring them together.
I was at the auction and didn't let it go just because of the price. The desk and chair kind of disppointed me a bit when I sam them in real life. I allready had the cupboard, which is in super condition and in the picture the desk looked dirty but beautiful.
At the auction it was shabby and very small. The doves were no match for the crows (to me). So no big regrets for not owning it, but more for not bringing them together. There's practically nothing left from this company. Ah well, you live and learn.
yeah and the mission is never over but hey they are together on cw keep up the good work mate!!
Love it !!
I will and thanks artislove.
Thanks MattyG
Drool....drool a bit more. Why wasn't I there, I would have bit on the doves.
I did bid. Just was too expensive......
The cupboard I do have is very much in a better shape. Luckily.
