Description
Attractive vintage mahogany queen anne style twin pedestal writing desk.
A lovely vintage mahogany twin pedestal desk. We date this desk to the first half of the 20th century.
The desk comes in three sections: the two end pedestals and the table top.
The two end pedestals each sit on four cabriole legs with ball and claw feet.
The right hand end pedestal is fitted with a large single drawer for filing which gives the impression of two drawers. The left hand pedestal is fitted with two drawers. The drawer fronts have central recessed mahogany panels outlined with cock beading and are fitted with decorative drop handles mounted on circular back plates.
The main table is fitted with two short drawers flanking a central long drawer. These drawer fronts match the pedestal drawers and all the drawers have working locks (key supplied). The top surface has an attractive gadroon carved edge.
The table top has a brown vinyl writing surface with studwork detail running around the outside.
The desk has a height of 30" (76cm), a width of 54.5" (138cm) and a depth of 30.5" (78cm).
The kneehole space is 24" (61cm) high by 20.5" (52cm) wide.
This attractive vintage mahogany twin pedestal desk remains in good solid condition with only minor surface markings commensurate with age and usage, including some slight wear, light scratches and some small indentations to the finish. A couple of the drawers are missing a bit of their cockbeading. Some of the drawers have some old usage marks to their insides.
This remains a very stylish and elegant vintage mahogany twin pedestal desk ideal for the small office or study etc. It will continue to provide sterling service for many years to come.
