tambour desks (desks, case furniture, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name))

 

Note: American desks with upright reeded or slatted shutters that cover up the nest of drawers and pigeonholes. Distinct from English "tambour writing tables", which are a modification of the cylinder desk with tambour shutters instead of a curved solid cylinder. Distinct from "rolltop desks" which close by means of a flexible shutter of convex shape composed of horizontal slats of wood.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 美式書桌,直立的凹板或平板蓋住抽屜和文件格。和英式的「活動捲門寫字桌」的不同,「活動捲門寫字桌」是改良的蓋弧形書桌,取代原先弧形硬蓋;而「捲蓋式書桌」則是指書桌有木板製的伸縮蓋。 
Dutch ..... Wordt gebruikt voor Amerikaanse bureaus met een rechtopstaande deksel van riet of latten die de rij laden en vakjes bedekt. Ze verschillen van de Engelse 'tambourschrijftafels' die een variatie op het cilinderbureau zijn met een tambourdeksel in plaats van een massieve, gebogen cilinder. Ze zijn ook anders dan '@rolltop desks' die worden gesloten met een flexibele, bolvormige deksel die houten, horizontale latten heeft. 
Spanish ..... Úsese para escritorios americanos con persianas enjuncadas verticales o hechas de tablillas que cubren el nido de cajones y casilleros. Se diferencian de "mesa de escribir de tambor” inglesa, que es una modificación del escritorio cilíndrico con persianas de tambor en lugar de un cilindro curvado sólido. Se diferencian de "escritorio con tapa enrollable” que se cierran por medio de una persiana flexible de forma convexa compuesta de tablillas de madera horizontales.
