Read moreBeautiful 1950’s Handmade Desk in Oak
£0FREE Ground Floor Delivery on this desk within approximately 10 days. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
A beautiful double pedestal desk in oak, hand made by a woodwork teacher in the 1950’s for his own home in Wiltshire. The desk displays some superb oak grain with a fantastically aged colour and patina. The desk has a very generous workspace but is not too bog for most people to be able to accommodate. The depth of the desk does pass through a standard width door. There is one old repair to the top right hand corner of the central drawer (please see photograph). It has been repaired well and is solid. The line is cosmetic but we must point it out for transparency.
With three free ruining drawers and a very generous pedestal cupboard the desk offers lots of very versatile storage. The top drawer locks, as does the pedestal cupboard. Both keys are present.
A beautiful desk that will age perfectly.

Read more1970’s Handmade Double Pedestal 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 1970’s. This desk was handmade by a carpenter in Newcastle for his daughter to study for her A Levels. He made it in his shed at the bottom of the garden. She was the first member of his family that stood a chance of going to University!
This style of desk is often referred to as teachers desks but this one was definitely a study desk. We love the story, the handmade imperfections and the aged colour and patina of it. It is now available for somebody else to love and use.
Please check all photographs for the condition of the desk. Should you need any more detailed pictures, just ask. We ask that you check all measurements of the desk to make sure it can pass through doorways and access points before making a decision to purchase.
