Philip Hunt Antiques has dated this Georgian Mahogany Pedestal Desk to the Georgian era.
The front is arranged with nine graduated drawers, all oak-lined and fitted with brass swan-neck handles, centred by a cupboard compartment, providing a practical and well-considered storage configuration. The top is inset with a rich brown leather writing surface, finely finished with hand-applied gilt and blind tooling, and framed by elegant cross-banding.
Unusually, the desk is of free-standing form and retains a fully polished reverse, allowing it to be positioned centrally within a room as a statement piece.
Presented in good condition.
