£0FREE Delivery on this desk within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
A very large and generous 1970’s Retro desk in teak veneer. It came to us from a small printing business office, where it had been since new. The desk is made for a corner with its L shape. The right hand leaf can be removed to leave a single pedestal desk. The right hand leaf also contains a tambour door fling section, complete with original trays. We love the proportions, the 70’s styling and the Retro handles. With a huge work surface and lots of storage this would make a perfect work from home, study or small business desk. Plenty of space for very regular use. It is a heavyweight piece and well constructed from teak veneer with steel legs. If access is tight this desk could be de-constructed for delivery.
There is a pull out shelf to the top of the pedestal, above the drawers. The bottom drawer is also a double height filing drawer.
Such a great Retro 70’s look!
