All those little gadgets and hidden compartments! And a useful peice of furnature to boot - especially for a person who likes to write and illustrate.

The hard part would be remembering where you put the stamps.

But heaven forbid, if you should lose any of the keys.....or forget which key goes where.
Must be multiples of the keys?

... I figured it was because of the marquetry. Was that sort of the "golden age" of mechanical furniture?

A remarkable piece, and very much "fit for a king".
