1930’s George V Oak Desk with Two Drawers
£0
FREE Delivery on this desk. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A beautiful antique desk in solid English oak, dating from the 193o’s. It was supplied by the Crown for Military or Civil Service use. These desks typically came from a Government office/ Public Service such as Civil Servant Offices, Schools, Railways etc. We restored the oak framework as the original brown finish was dark and very inconsistent. it looked very tired indeed! We re-finished it in a very flexible warm mid oak which always seems to be our most popular finish for desks. Both drawers are free running with original handles, stamped with the Crown and GR (George Regina). The top is the original gorgeous green finish, though does carry some cosmetic marks form its past. Nothing that detracts from the desk in any way but we like to point out any issues and also show in the photographs. The close up photographs make the marks look worse than they really are! Now very fresh and ready for regular use.
This will only get better with age and appreciate in value. A superb quality antique desk.
Please not that the desk does not disassemble. The top may be removed but would only change the depth by a few centimetres. You should double check that the desk will pass through all doorways and turns before purchasing. Any questions then please just ask us.
Dimensions:
137cm Wide, 76cm Deep, 77.5cm High

£0FREE Delivery on this time within approximately 10 working days. More remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
An early 20th Century hardwood side table hand carved with elephants head and trunks as legs. A well constructed table with an unusual but vey popular style. Most probably carved in South East Asia originally, it has a beautifully aged ebonised colouring with original wood colour showing through in patches. Perfect patination from use. The top has splits where the original top was formed from planks rather than one solid piece of timber, but the table is solid and free from wobbles. We love it exactly as it is, in totally original condition, so we did not want to repair or restore and lose the gorgeous patina. All three elephants heads have both trunks in tact.
We think this is now a highly desirable and superbly stylish piece that would add a touch of chic to a variety of rooms/ interiors. It could be used as a side table for drinks, books, magazines etc or a lamp table or even a plant stand or towel table in the bathroom. A classic but very stylish piece.
Dimensions:
73.5cm High, 37cm Diameter top, max diameter approx 40cm at the widest point of the elephant heads.
