Its drop-down front reveals a "graduated" area, a collection of small drawers and niches designed for surgical organization. Some models even hid secrets: invisible drawers activated by springs concealed under a molding. Also known as a "bureau à abattant," it remains the ideal piece for elegantly concealing your workspace with a simple gesture.
