Another secretary of a fall-front, stand-up type of case piece. This desk has a more contemporary feel than #1, yet is rich with detail in the French feet, inlayed cornice work and corresponding iris carvings and paintings. Here the conceal/reveal method is well displayed as the exterior painting hints at what is inside. This cabinet design is appropriate for many other varied uses.

The painting has a Crawford Notch theme with iris.
