"An Exceptional Mid-Century Walnut Desk of Remarkable Quality and Presence”
£1450.00
beautifully crafted mid-century walnut desk, combining refined proportions with outstanding craftsmanship and timeless appeal.
Constructed with high-quality materials and finished in richly figured walnut veneer, this piece showcases exceptional grain patterns throughout, particularly across the top and drawer fronts. The warm tones and elegant finish give the desk a sophisticated presence, suitable for both traditional and contemporary interiors.
The desk is solid, stable, and clearly built to a high standard — a piece designed not only for visual impact but for everyday functional use.
The green leather writing surface features a traditional gilt-tooled border. As expected with a vintage piece, the leather shows signs of use and age, adding character. Should a refreshed appearance be preferred, we are happy to assist with arranging a full leather replacement at the buyer’s expense.
All drawers run smoothly and are fitted with classic turned wooden knobs. Each lock is fully functional, and the desk comes complete with working keys.
A particularly desirable feature is the fully finished back, allowing the desk to be positioned freely within a room — ideal for central placement in an office or studio environment.
A truly elegant and high-quality mid-century desk, offering both practicality and understated luxury.
