    Any idea what the furniture in the corner is called? or any other information like age or maker?

    The furniture was purchased in Sweden and is quite old.

    Sorry for the bad quality photos.

    A search of Biedermeier Secretary Desk will yield a world of possibilities.

    Escritoire rather than secretary, actually. Sweden was famous for its own brand of empire furniture. Can't say if it is the real deal from the picture, but it is a nice one.

    :) Escritorie. Yes, Thanks Fern. I was just guessing it might be Empire style, I am delighted I am actually able to guess a style.

    In Sweden it's called "chiffonjé" if it has drawers beneath the writing table.
