Splendid Oak Tambour Door Oak Desk C1910

1900 - 1920

Sold by Billy Hunt & Co.

Description

We are always seeking those more sought after pieces and we have a rather handsome English oak desk with the sought after tambour door hiding useful storage. Also worth noting this one is narrower than most so able to be placeable with a little more ease than many of its era.

The design is good on this one alongside the condition which is excellent with only sensible aging. The setup is simple. We have a solid oak oversailing top, a tambour door to the left, a long narrow centre drawer, a typist slide and two deep drawers to the right, well panelled sides and all sitting on gorgeous shaped legs. Great looking oak handles as well!

Our workshop has ensured it is ready for placing.

A great looking English oak desk C1915.

Billy Hunt and Co is located on a large Victorian farm just a short country drive from the Rangemore village, a designated conservation area, which was built by Michael Thomas Bass in the 1850s to house the Bass Rangemore Estate workers consisting mainly of Victorian redbrick cottages and the occasional barn.

Our home is a classic Victorian designed and well equipped late 19th century 2 story red brick built barn of some 4000 sq feet nestled in classic English countryside, which enjoyed a careful full renovation in 2000. The estate still benefits being managed in the traditional manner with an Estate Manger, estate carpenter, gardeners etc. A rather delightful place to have as our work space.

Martina, there is no Billy at Billy hunt, has led the team since 2103 and is an interior designer qualified from The Inchbald School of Design London whose previous working life included such clients as Vertu, Aston Martin and Johnnie Walker to name a few.

Please do not hesitate to call or email if you have any questions on the pieces that may interest you - Many thanks Martina
