Read moreEarly 1930’s George V Oak Desk
£0FREE Delivery on this desk within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
An amazing desk in solid English oak, dating from the early 1930’s. These desks typically came from a Government office/ Public Service such as Civil Servant Offices, Schools, Railways etc. This desk is in exceptional original condition. The beautiful brass cup handles also carry the GR stamps. The three generous drawers all run freely and have been sanded to their bottoms and cleaned. There are very light cosmetic marks and signs of use to the original green top but it is in exceptional condition for its age (and we have sold a fair few of these desks). Please see photographs.
We have had a number of these George V and George VI desks and they always sell so so quickly.
This will only get better with age and appreciate in value. A superb quality antique desk.

Read moreVintage Teacher’s Desk in Beech & Iroko
£0FREE Delivery on this desk within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield areas will incur a surcharge to send via couriers.
An very stylish late 1960’s/ early 1970’s teachers desk very well made form beech and iroko. The desk is a superb size for regular home use. It has been hand made with quality hardwood and dovetail joints to all drawers. The frame is made of beech with a beautiful Iroko top. Very reminiscent of the old hardwood science lab tops. The top has been restored to remove writing and scratch marks, then given the best Osmo oil, satin clear finish. This means the top has been rejuvenated to show off its beautiful grain whilst also having a treatment against spills.
After a full clean and some gentle restoration work it now offers a superb stylish work or study space. A very generous work surface with lots of very clean storage drawers. A rare desk and one that will certainly appreciate in value if cared for.
