Thank you for your question. Yes, the Secretary Bookcase stands as a wonderful reproduction of the eighteenth-century originals, being that it is both well made (fine cabinet woods and detailed veneers) and careful consideration has been given over to overall proportions. Though we do not know the manufacturer, we would place the date as late 20th century.
I would be delighted to provide a full condition report.
