Antique Desks: Large Victorian Oak Partners Desk, circa 1880.  Ref:SN339

 
 

Large Victorian Oak Partners Desk

Large Victorian Oak Partners Desk

This beautifully coloured large partners desk is made of solid oak, quarter cut in many areas giving an attractive lighter flecking contrasting with the rich brown base, known as 'Medullary Rays'.(See the side panels of the desk for an excellent example of this technique).

The desk has recently been professional restored and has a new hide writing surface with gilt and blind tooling, which blends beautifully with the oak.

The top has a bull nosed edge and is fitted with 3 draws on one side and two central drawers with useful pull out writing slides on either side supported by hinged 'lopers'. This is an unusual feature for a desk from this period.

The reversible pedestals are fitted with 3 drawers on one side and cupboards with a central shelf on the other which offer a variety of arrangements for the top and the pedestals. The side panels and door are very attractively marked as mentioned above. The bases of the pedestals are fitted with plinths.

The cupboards and drawers have the original locks and keys with 'Gibbons, Wolverhampton' marked on them. The drawers and doors have turned oak knobs and the drawers are lined in cedar wood with traditional dovetail construction.

As a partners desk it is of course finished all round and designed to be freestanding in a room and does not need to placed against a wall.
The desk is made in 3 parts; the top and 2 pedestals are all separate parts which enable ease of access and transportation.
