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

A Carlton House desk is a specific style of writing table designed in the late eighteenth century, characterised by a U-shaped superstructure containing small drawers and cupboards surrounding the main writing surface.

Edwardian cabinetmakers typically utilised satinwood veneers over pine or oak frames, often incorporating wood crossbanding such as kingwood or rosewood, alongside oak-lined drawers and cast brass hardware.

Authentic Edwardian examples feature hand-dovetailed drawer joints, solid oak drawer linings, precise wood marquetry or crossbanding, brass gallery railings, and period-appropriate castors.

Position the desk in a dedicated home office, library, or drawing room alongside contemporary seating to create a balanced contrast between traditional craftsmanship and modern design.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year, keeping the wood away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent drying and fading.
