Read moreGeorge VI English Oak Teachers Desk from London City Council
£0FREE Delivery on this desk. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
An amazing desk in solid English oak, dating from the circa late 1940’s. These desks typically came from a Government office/ Public Service such as Civil Servant Offices, Schools, Railways etc. This desk is stamped with George VI and the crown on the underside, together with LCC (London County Council). London County Council was the principal local government body for the County of London throughout its existence from 1889 to 1965, and the first London-wide general municipal authority to be directly elected. It covered the area today known as Inner London and was replaced by the Greater London Council
Now presented in a beautiful rich oak that only time can offer. The desk also retains its original green leather top with some beautiful imprint detailing. All three drawers run freely with beautiful brass cup handles. We have had a number of these George V and George VI desks but this is the best we have had.
This will only get better with age and appreciate in value. A superb quality antique desk.

Read more1920’s Arts & Crafts English Oak Desk
£0FREE Delivery on this desk. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
An beautiful desk in solid English radial cut oak, dating from the late 1920’s to early 1930’s. It carries very distinctive Arts & Crafts movement lines and legs. Well constructed and a very good weight for its size; reflecting the quality of oak and carpentry used in its construction. It came to us in a very sorry state on top but now has been stripped back to its original wooden top. The whole desk has then been cleaned, teak oiled and refinished. A beautiful solid little desk with bags of antique style and charm.
Both drawers run freely and have been fully cleaned out. One handle does have a grain split on it (please see close up photograph)

Read more1930’s Double Pedestal Teachers Desk
£0FREE Delivery on this desk. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A very attractive and stylish double pedestal desk dating from the 1930’s. These desks are often referred to as teachers desks but this one came out of a solicitors office in Buxton, Derbyshire – where it had been since new! With some gentle cleaning and tlc it came up beautifully again. A testament to how well it has been looked after, we believe. It is a great size for home with lots of very useful storage. All drawers are clean and run smoothly, as do the two pull out shelves at the top of each pedestal. The bottom right hand drawer is a double height filing type drawer.
This will only get better with age and appreciate in value. A superb antique desk that looks beautiful.

Truly stunning heavy English radial cut oak throughout, with through dovetails joints to the pull out drawers and dovetails on the three pedestal drawers.
