Read moreSuperb Mid Century Industrial Steel Desk by Sheer Pride
£0FREE Shipping on this desk within approximately 150 miles of Cambridgeshire. More remote and far afield locations will incur a surcharge to send via a two man courier team.
A pretty exceptional example of mid century industrial design by Sheep Pride (England). It dates from the late 1950’s to mid 1960’s and is a rare find in this condition. We have sourced many industrial desks but this is certainly one of the best we have found! It is in completely original green paintwork and is exceptional condition for the age of the piece and its industrial/ utilitarian heritage. The desk has six drawers in total, all with original handles, perfectly aged in brass. Most desks of this age and style have dents and rusting. The top of this desk is also very when you consider their heavy use over the years and age. The top does have a few cosmetic issues. There is a small ding to the steel edging (circa 2cm), a quirky repair in leather to the front right edge (10cm wide x 1cm deep) and a rear corner repair, again in leather (14cm diagonal, 4 cm at deepest point – easily hidden by a desk lamp, vase etc.) Please see extensive photographs for the exact condition and just ask if you need any more detail. All drawers are very clean and run smoothly. The bottom right hand drawer is a double height filing drawer. A solid desk of great quality and a real stand out piece of industrial design.
These mid Century industrial desks are very highly sought after. With the condition and size of this desk it is perfect for the home with plenty of work surface for regular unrestricted use.
We love the overall look, perfectly aged green colour, patina and condition. Mid Century industrial styling at the top of its game!

Read moreVintage Teak Desk with Removable Legs
£0FREE Delivery on this desk within approximately 150 miles of Cambridgeshire. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
An original retro style desk in a gorgeously coloured teak. We estimate that it dates form the late 1970’s to mid 1980’s and it came to us from Cambridge University as they were upgrading/ modernising the lecturer’s offices. We love the colour of the teak, the 70’s styling and the fact that the legs can be removed if you have a tight access space, such as narrow doors or a narrow staircase to the attic room etc. With a generous work surface and two drawers this would make a perfect work from home or study desk. Plenty of space for very regular use once fully assembled. It is a well weighted piece and well constructed from teak veneer, solid wooden drawer sides and bottoms, with steel legs.
Such a great Retro 70’s look!
Dimensions:
140cm Wide, 75cm Deep, 71cm High (can be raised via screw out levelling feet)
Please let us know if you would like this delivered with the legs still attached or removed.

Read moreVery Cute 1920’s Oak Bureau Desk in Solid Oak
£0FREE Ground Floor Delivery on this desk within approximately 150 miles of Cambridgeshire. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
We just fell in love with how cute and compact this bureau is. It dates to around the late 1920’s and is hand made from solid oak. The oak has aged and coloured perfectly to give a rich and warm palette. It would be perfect in a smaller hallway to keep things tidy or as an occasional use laptop desk. Originally it would have been used for writing of course. Inside are the cutest little pigeon holes. The front pull down section retains its original lock and key, so that it can be locked should you need it to be. With a drawer and two lower shelves it actually offers an array of uses and storage for its very compact size. We just know this will be perfect for somebody’s space.

Read moreEarly 20th Century Oak Desk from Cavendish Laboratory
£0FREE Ground Floor Delivery on this desk within approximately 150 miles of Cambridgeshire. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
This desk has an incredible provenance. It came out of the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge University, where the first atom was split in April 1932. John Cockroft and Ernest Walton split the first atom at the Cavendish Laboratory. We have video evidence of the stairs to the laboratory and the office to the right, where this desk was. Clearly we can not say if either of these two pioneering scientists ever used the desk but the age and location fit perfectly.
The desk is beautiful in its own right. Dating from the late teens to early 1930’s it is presented in its original oak. We gave as little restoration to the piece as we could. We simply cleaned the desk, sanded and cleaned the internal drawer liners and also restored the top only. We wanted to keep as much of the desk in its original used condition as possible; whilst also offering a piece ready for a very lucky new owner to cherish. An rare opportunity to own a very special desk.
This size is superb for home/ home office/ study. Not too large but a really useful size work space.
The desk does not disassemble so please measure all door widths and access points (e.g. stairs, turning points) before purchasing.
