Read more1960’s Double Pedestal Teak Desk
£0FREE Delivery on this piece within approximately 150 miles of Cambridgeshire. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A very stylish and superbly grained mid century teak desk. It dates from around the mid to late 1960’s and is in beautiful restored condition. It is now presented in a beautiful colour showing off the stunning grain of quality teak. It has a nicely sized work surface for home use. The drawers run freely and have been cleaned and sanded back internally. The bottom right hand drawer is a double height filing drawer with original suspension file rail still present. There are two pull out shelves to the top of both pedestals – one just a shelf, the other containing the original plastic stationery tray. There are a few old ink stains that were not possible to remove due to how deep they had soaked in to the wood, any further work would have lost the grain of the teak completely. The area can easily be covered but we have to point this out to any potential buyer. Please see photographs for colour and size of stains. The price reflects this stain.
A super looking desk, very useable for regular working but not too deep for most people to be able to accommodate. It is very Scandinavian mid Century in its design.

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 came to us in a dreadful state of old varnish and paint.

It is now presented in a warm oak, retaining signs of wear and use to maintain the character and authenticity of the desk. The beautiful aged brass cup handles also carry the GR stamps. There are cosmetic marks and signs of use to the original green top. Please see photographs.
Two drawers have been sanded back and cleaned internally, one required a new bottom liner. They all retain their original beautifully aged brass cup handles. We have had a number of these George V and George VI desks and they always sell so so quickly.
