Antique Small Edwardian Oak Bureau | Barley Twist Legs

1900 - 1920
For Sale by ActFurniture LTD
Description

Antique 20th century small Edwardian bureau in oak, a charming and beautifully detailed piece with particularly attractive period features. 

Barley twist legs joined by supporting stretchers give the bureau an elegant and distinctive foundation, while two drawers to the front provide useful storage and are finished with decorative brass handles. 

Opening the bureau reveals a nicely fitted interior arranged with numerous small storage compartments, ideal for keeping stationery, letters and personal items organised. 

A lovely green writing surface provides an attractive contrast against the oak and adds a touch of colour to the design. 

Beautiful natural grain and rich colour can be admired throughout the timber, enhancing its traditional Edwardian character. 

In good condition and of good quality, this desirable bureau offers plenty of functionality within its smaller proportions, making it a particularly appealing choice where space is limited.

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.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

  • SizeH 97.5 cm (38 in) x W 64 cm (25 in) x D 42.5 cm (17 in)

This Edwardian oak bureau is a small 20th century piece made from timber with a rich brown colour and natural grain. The sloping fall-front lid has a small pink tassel hanging from a keyhole escutcheon at the top, and opens above two drawers fitted with drop handles. The lower body stands on barley twist legs joined by straight stretchers and ending in round bun feet. Moulded framing surrounds the drawer fronts and the bevelled panels of the lid. The bureau measures 97.5 cm high, 64 cm wide, and 42.5 cm deep. Inside, the fitted compartments hold stationery and letters, while the green writing surface offers a practical place to work. In a home today, the bureau functions well in a compact study, bedroom, or living room corner where floor space is limited, serving as a writing desk and storage cabinet in one piece of furniture.
