Antique Writing Desk, English, Victorian

19th century
Description

This is an antique writing desk. An English, mahogany and Amboyna office, study or drawing room table, dating to the late Victorian period, circa 1900.

Graced with exceptional figuring and fine craftsmanship

Displays a desirable aged patina and in good order

Select stocks show fine grain interest and rich caramel hues

Striking Amboyna drawer fronts present beautifully

Arranged as a pair of useful drawers below a wide writing surface with gently rolled edge

Each drawer dressed with a pair of brass drop handles, set upon shaped and pierced backplates

Quality drawer fronts dovetail skilfully with clean pitch pine boxes

Eye-catching shaped brackets accentuate the lower fascia

Turned legs at each corner, with cupped and collared decorations

Riding smoothly upon a quartet of articulated brass castors

This is an appealing antique writing desk, with eye-catching materials and great colour. An attractive accompaniment to a drawing room or study, or within a spare alcove. Solid joints and construction, delivered waxed, polished and ready for the home.
