A superb large double pedestal desk dating to the late 1920’s to early 1930’s. It is constructed from beautifully aged oak solid throughout.

The bottom drawer of the right hand pedestal is a double height filing type drawer. It is presented in a beautiful aged rich oak with all handles totally original and free from splits, cracks or missing areas – as is so often the case with desks of this age. It is solid, heavyweight and offers a superb work surface for regular use. A piece to be used, admired and treasured.

A beautiful single pedestal ‘teachers’ style desk in a beautifully aged oak colour. It dates from the 1920’s and is perfectly sized for home. A really good sized work surface but not too big to be able to accommodate or get in to your home. The oak is solid and heavy, and perfectly coloured.

Read moreEarly 1970’s Teachers Desk in Iroko
£0FREE Delivery on this desk. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
A very different and very stylish early 1970’s desk in iroko wood and teak veneer. We estimate that this was handmade in the 1967’s and has some beautiful grain work to the wood finish. The desk is in a superb colour and made from a heavy solid iroko frame work with teak veneer to the top inset, sides and drawer fronts. It retains all of its original perfectly aged pull handles. The drawers are also solid wood and made from a good quality and weight of wood. We fully cleaned the desk, lightly sanded back the top and gave it a fresh coat of varnish. The size of the desk is perfect for most homes. Not too large to worry about it passing through doorways and stairs etc but large enough to offer a really usable work surface. The four drawers run very freely and are clean internally.
The colour and condition are exactly right for a very stylish work/ study desk.
We have sold a number of these mid teachers desks and they never hang around for long.
