Description

A beautiful and quite unusual antique Edwardian inlaid mahogany writing table. This was made in England, it dates from around 1890-1900.

This is very well made and is a useful size, the oval top has an inset tooled green leather writing surface. There are also lovely satin wood inlays around the top edge, on the drawer front, and running down the legs. The legs are tapered with spade end feet, and are supported by a stretcher for extra strength. The back is also nicely finished, so this can be used as a free standing item.

Take an enlarged look at the superb brass handles, which are original to this piece.

We have recently had this re-polished, the condition is excellent for its age.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

FAQs

Edwardian furniture, produced during the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, is characterised by lighter proportions, neoclassical influences, and a blend of revived historical motifs.

These pieces were typically constructed from fine timbers such as mahogany, satinwood, and walnut, frequently accented with marquetry inlay, crossbanding, and fitted with leather or faux-leather writing surfaces.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit period-appropriate joinery, hand-cut dovetails in the drawer construction, patinated brass hardware, and subtle signs of age and wear consistent with early 20th-century manufacture.

An antique desk can be contrasted against minimalist modern decor to create a focal point, or integrated into a traditional study paired with contemporary ergonomic seating.

Preserve the wood by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, and periodically clean surfaces with a soft, dry cloth, applying high-quality beeswax sparingly.
