This classicist escritoire forms part of the furnishings of the Yellow Room, which was part of the King’s Apartments and served as a small private dining room.
The escritoire is richly ornamented with bronze fittings, chiselled in plant and geometrical motifs. Inside there is a folding writing desk padded with green cloth and drawers and shelves for documents and stationery. It was purchased for the Castle in 1983.
