A superb 19th Century writing desk made of mahogany with 5 drawers set on turned and reeded legs. There is a raised shaped gallery around the writing surface and each drawer is beautifully beaded with turned knobs. The desk is a good large size but is a very elegant piece.
The desk is in very good condition and is clean and tidy throughout, having been beautifully refinished and restored. The drawers run well and are in good condition, however there are some old ink stains in the base of some drawers.There are some minor signs of wear and age and some light surface scratches but nothing detrimental and the desk displays beautifully and is ready for use.
