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 paneling 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.
This is
a good quality desk which has had the polish revived and would bring
considerable presence to any traditional office or period residence.
Date : circa 1910
