Victorian Burr Walnut Pedestal Desk
A beautiful Victorian desk of good large proportions. It has an arrangement of 9 burr walnut fronted drawers around a central kneehole. Each drawer has its original wooden knobs and the desk comes with a working key. Each pedestal has a plinth base with castors below. The top of the desk has a good quality dark red leather writing surface with a gilt tooled edge.
The desk is in very good condition for its age and has been well looked after. It has a lovely rich patina and the drawers open well. The inside of the drawers are generally clean and tidy with just some minor ink stains. There are some normal signs of age and use, some minor knocks and light surface marks but nothing detrimental and the leather surface is in good condition. The desk has been cleaned and polished and displays beautifully ready for use.
