A roll-top is a type of closure commonly found in furniture, especially in desks and cabinets. It consists of a flexible, curved panel that rolls up and down, allowing access to the contents inside. This design helps to keep items secure and protected from dust while providing a neat appearance when closed. The roll-top mechanism is often made from wood or other materials and can be operated manually. It is popular in vintage and traditional styles of furniture, such as the roll-top desk, which offers both functionality and aesthetic appeal in home or office settings.
