<p>[QUOTE=&quot;808 raver, post: 9777130, member: 4654&quot;]I really don&#039;t know enough about French furniture to say for certain but I suspect your French secretaire is a salesman&#039;s piece and made for that exact reason. It&#039;s very well made but one thing about the article I think they got wrong is that apprentice pieces weren&#039;t made well. In this period an apprentice would take their final exam after 7 years of training to become a cabinet maker, only at that stage were these pieces undertaken so the chance they didn&#039;t know what they were doing is slim. Also making a small piece of furniture is far harder than making a normal sized piece.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
