ActFurniture LTD has dated this Antique Oak School Desk to the 1920s.
This Independent Date Guide was compiled by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. It works only from the photographs shown on this page and is never told the date the dealer has declared. It is a guide, not a guarantee of age, and occasional errors can occur.
It bears the company's original shield-shaped transfer label, marked Darlington and Patent, to the lid.
The desk and the spindle-back chair are joined on a single cast iron frame, standing on chunky oak sledge feet with a pair of wooden footrests. The chair has a shaped solid seat, a curved top rail and turned spindles and uprights with ring-turned detail.
The oak displays a lovely figured grain with a warm, aged colour and a rich, honest patina built up over many years of use.
Presented in good condition commensurate with age, with the expected marks and wear of a working school desk. A very desirable and characterful piece, perfect as a feature in a study, playroom or hallway, or for a collector of school antiques.
