The desk is fitted with a new polished-edge toughened glass top. The desk has been cleaned and French polished by hand, to a professional standard, in our workshop, therefore the colour and patination are of an excellent standard. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges and insides of drawers, but nothing significant considering the age of the item (see photos). There is no damage to the desk. The drawers retain their original knobs and handles. The drawers are constructed with dovetail joints and mahogany drawer linings, closing flush to the frame. This is a single piece desk; it does not dismantle into sections. The desk has been adapted from a dressing table. This Art Deco desk is well constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
