The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in the eighteenth century and reproduced throughout the nineteenth century, a Chippendale style pedestal desk consists of two vertical banks of drawers supporting a flat writing top, characterized by carved edge mouldings, bracket feet, and mahogany construction.

These desks were constructed using mahogany or mahogany veneers over pine or oak drawer linings, featuring leather-inset writing tops with gold leaf tooling and cast brass handles.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, period brass hardware with threaded posts, hand-carved decorative trim, and age-consistent wear along drawer runners and base edges.

A mahogany pedestal desk functions as a focal centerpiece in a modern study when contrasted against neutral walls, contemporary task lighting, and modern soft furnishings.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a dry cloth, apply natural beeswax polish along the wood grain, and treat the leather inset with dedicated leather conditioner while avoiding direct sunlight and radiator heat.
