Marylebone Antiques has dated this Edwardian Inlaid Mahogany Desk to the 1900s.
This is of outstanding quality, it is extremely well made and is a lovely size.
The top has inlaid satin wood banding around the inset tooled leather writing surface, there is also inlaid satin wood banding around the borders of the sides and back panels. The drawers have detailed brass handles, with fine, hand cut dovetailed joints. The central drawer has the Edwards and Roberts makers mark stamped on the edge, the upper right drawer is fitted out with stationary holders.
The back of the desk is nicely finished, this can be used as a free standing item. The desk stands on eight finely tapered yet sturdy legs which terminate in brass casters.
We have had this re-polished to a very high standard, the condition is excellent for its age, with just some minor historical wear remaining beneath the polish here and there.
