Description |
A superb quality antique mahogany partners library / writing table desk dating to circa 1840.
This large antique partners library table has been constructed with the use of the finest mahogany timbers of its period which have mellowed to a wonderful colour having only needed a gentle wax.
The rectangular top with inset leather and gilt tooling having a mahogany crossbanded edge with rounded corners above six (6) moulded edge drawers with turned wooden handles, three working drawers to each side. The drawers are constructed with handcut dovetails and have a front escutcheon with a brass lock.
Raised on four well turned and carved legs terminating on original castors this writing table also has panelled sides which is rare and another sign of quality.
In excellent condition having been waxed to bring out its wonderful colour with an old but not original leather in very good condition this partners desk is superb quality and one of the best of its types.
Large writing / desk/ library tables like these are becoming rare and increasingly hard to find especially of this quality.
Height to underside 23 1/4 inches - 59cm |
