ABOUT
A superb Art Deco figured walnut pedestal desk, made in England and dating from the 1930’s.
This is of amazing quality, it is beautifully constructed from solid and veneered walnut. It is very study and heavy for its size, there is beautiful joinery with fine, hand cut dovetailed joints on the drawers. Above each bank of drawers there is a tray slide shelf that pulls out with a brass handle, even the surface of the slide shelves have gorgeous walnut grain patterns. There is a black inset leather top, the back of this is nicely finished, so it can be used as a free standing item. The corners are beautifully moulded and each outer edge has fluted grooves running down the whole side.
We have had this stripped and re-polished to a very high standard, the condition is superb for its age. The black leather top has been cleaned up and revived, there is just a little surface wear remaining beneath the polish.
This comes in one piece, but the top can be unscrewed and detached if needed, so it can break down into three pieces.
