19th Century (5' X 3') Mahogany Pedestal Desk (Unrestored)

19th century
Sold by Culvertons
Description

We are offering this substantial Victorian pedestal (separates into three pieces) in an unrestored state because it is unusual to find an example that is both perfectly useable but also lovely and original. This desk has so much character, it's easy to picture it in a Victorian setting, so much so, that it would also make a perfect prop for a film. It retains a warm and appealing colour, the original tooled oil cloth writing surface (the mahogany that surrounds this is particularly pleasing), and a full complement of original turned wooden knobs, and locks (with original key). Measuring 5' x 3' (152 x 91cm), it's not only aesthetically pleasing but provides the owner with plenty of working space and legroom - in fact, it has a little more height under the knee than usual, rare in a desk from this period. A good-looking desk, that is not in showroom condition but does offer both value for money with lots of potential for future enhancement if so desired.

Dealers Notes

Whenever possible Culvertons undertake the carriage of items within London and the home counties. Professional, competitive and trusted couriers and shipping companies are engaged for deliveries for the remainder of our customers. Smaller items, when instructed, will be carefully parcelled and securely sent by the carrier.

We strive to accurately describe and illustrate our stock on the 'Selling Antiques' website. However, we understand that it is not always possible to judge from photographs how an item will look in the home or garden. For this reason, if notified within seven days from the date of delivery we offer a full refund (less any agreed carriage costs) once the item has been returned in the same condition as it left our premises.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.
