Inlaid Walnut Desk with Green Leather Top.

1900 - 1920
For Sale by Limited Editions
Description

A most impressive walnut writing table/desk from around 1900. This has a bit of an Arts and Crafts influence. A good useable size with a sensible kneehole height of 63 cms. All the castors are original, all work swivel and roll. There is a central drawer with neat little brass handles. Not original but almost certainly a bit older than the desk. The tooled leather has some signs of use of course but is in overall pretty good condition and has no rips or tears or scuffing.

We have cleaned and rewaxed this and it is now ready for a new home where it can be appreciated for another 120 years or so. A nice tidy useful item that looks really good. A sensible price too, please compare with others available. give us a call to discuss. 01565 874075.

We currently have a number of writing tables available, please check out our own web pages for more information. Delivery can be arranged to most areas if required.

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.

FAQs

An inlaid writing desk is a piece of home or library furniture featuring decorative wood marquetry or parquetry accents, often paired with an inset leather writing surface.

These pieces generally combine solid walnut framing and fine veneers with bone or boxwood inlay, fitted with a leather skiver on the writing surface and cast brass hardware.

Authentic period writing desks display hand-fitted drawer joints, natural patina on the leather surface, original cast metal handles, and hand-turned wooden legs.

Position the desk near natural light in a home office or living area, paired with a classic armchair and a brass desk lamp to highlight the timber tones.

Keep the desk positioned away from direct heat sources, apply specialized leather conditioner to maintain the surface skiver, and wax the timber frame periodically with natural beeswax.
