Read moreMid Century Teachers Desk in Oak by Abbess
£0FREE Ground Floor Delivery on this desk within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
An excellent example of the ever popular Abbess desk in Oak. These are often referred to as Teacher’s desks. This one dates from around 1950 and is a superb rich honey oak colour and size. Two drawers to the pedestals offering lost of really useful storage, with the bottom drawer being a double height filing type drawer. An additional kneehole desk gives plenty of storage across the three free running desks. This desk also has its original screw out brass feet to level the desk for uneven floors or give an extra 2cm of height, if required. The Abbess label is still present to the fornt of the desk and stamped inside of the central drawer for provenance.
We fully cleaned and restored this one to its former glory. Please check all photographs for the condition. A beautiful rich aged oak colour and patina that will just age perfectly. The size is perfect if you have smaller space or want to create a work space, rather than a dedicated study or home office room.
We have sold a number of these Abbess desks and they never hang around for long.

Read moreMid Century Two Drawer Desk in Oak
£0FREE Delivery on this desk within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A gorgeously simple mid Century desk. We love the very clean lines, the colour and condition of this desk. It is a classic in that it will never age and fit with so many interior themes and colour pallets. The desk is nicely sized for home – not too big but more than capable of being a regular use desk with its generous work surface and tow drawers for storage. A gorgeous warm tone just finishes the piece perfectly. And with such a generous space between the legs it can accommodate a modern wider desk chair, or a more classic one.
Please note that the desk does not disassemble. You should double check that the desk will pass through all doorways and turns before purchasing. Any questions then please just ask us.

Read moreLarge 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.
A beautiful antique desk in solid English oak, dating from the 193o’s. It was supplied by the Crown for Military or Civil Service use. These desks typically came from a Government office/ Public Service such as Civil Servant Offices, Schools, Railways etc. We restored the oak framework as the original brown finish was dark and very inconsistent. It looked very tired indeed! We re-finished it in a very flexible warm mid oak which always seems to be our most popular finish for desks. All three drawers are free running, have been sanded and cleaned internally. The drawers retain their perfectly aged original brass handles, stamped with the Crown and GR (George Regina). The top is the original gorgeous green finish, with very few cosmetic marks form its past. Nothing that detracts from the desk in any way but we like to point out any issues and also show in the photographs. Now very fresh and ready for regular use.
This will only get better with age and appreciate in value. A superb quality antique desk.
Please not that the desk does not disassemble. The top may be removed but would only change the depth by a few centimetres. You should double check that the desk will pass through all doorways and turns before purchasing. Any questions then please just ask us.

Read moreEarly 20th Century Two Drawer Desk in Oak
£0FREE Delivery on this desk. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A beautiful antique desk in solid English oak, dating from the late 192o’s to early 1930’s. It is completely original throughout, with the original leather top and superbly aged brass cup handles. We adore the shape of the legs. The desk is perfectly sized for home – nice and wide but not too deep to be able to pass through most doorways. A very nicely sized work surface but not a mission to be able to get in to the room you need. Both drawers run freely and are clean inside. The leather top does have two old tears of circa 3cm each (please see photographs) but they are to the side and could easily be hidden under a lamp or plant if you prefer.
