Read moreMid Century Schoolmasters Desk
£0FREE Delivery on this desk. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
A really good old schoolmaster / mistress desk. This came out of a school in Holmfirth in West Yorkshire. It dates from around the 1960’s. The desk offers lots of storage with 7 drawers and the centre kneehole drawer retains its original working lock and one key. The desk has been well used and well loved and carries the cosmetic wear and tear you would expect for a desk of this age form a school. It is however, structurally very sound with all joints firm. The top is also original and in super condition for its age with only one sign of heavy wear to comment on (please see photograph). We love the rich colour of this, together with the well used and tarnished handles and its original deep green top.
A super stylish old school desk and a really good desk for home or work.
