A
recently, sympathetically, restored Edwardian partner's desk measuring
72" wide by 48" deep. It has a glorious rich brown patina
with an attractive brown hide writing surface decorated with gilt tooling.
The hide is surrounded by a 3" band of mahogany with a bull nose
moulded edge.
The
desk top has 3 drawers either side of its length and each pedestal has
3 drawers to the front and a cupboard to the reverse. Two of the smaller
drawers have an inset ivorine makers label 'Robson and Sons Ltd. Newcastle
on Tyne'.
All the drawers are of traditional dovetail construction with solid
mahogany linings, well figured mahogany fronts, original brass swan
neck handles and working locks.
The desk has attractive raised panelling to both sides of the pedestals
and stands on plinth bases with hidden castors for ease of movement.
As with all pedestal desks, it comes in 3 parts for ease of handling
and transportation.
Condition:
This
is a good quality desk which has had the polish revived and would bring
considerable presence to any traditional office or period residence.
Price
£5,950.
