In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the 1900s.
The desk stands on small ceramic castors and splits into three pieces so is easy to move and transport.
It is a good small size but still big enough to sit at comfortably and use. The kneehole measures approximately 21 1/2" (55cm) wide x 22 1/2" (57cm) high.
The desk is in good condition for its age and has been well looked after. It has a lovely warm patina and the oak has mellowed to a plesant colour over time. The drawers open well and are generally clean and tidy inside. The leather surface is in good order with some signs of age and use but nothing detrimental. One of the knobs has been changed at some point but is a good match to the others and doesn't stand out too much. There are some normal light signs of age and use, some surface scratches, knocks and minor old splits but nothing detrimental or untoward. The desk has been cleaned and polished and displays beautifully and is ready for use.
