 Desk and Chippendale Chair

About this space

This small desk, which has been restored, was originally located in the Senate Reading Room (now the Jefferson Congressional Reading Room). Only four of the original Chippendale chairs of this design from the Jefferson Building remain. All of the chairs have been restored and are located in the Members of Congress Room.
