Description:
This beautiful breakfront partners' desk was recently hand-made in England using the same techniques that were employed by the master craftsmen of the Victorian and Georgian periods. The wood is a beautiful, hand-distressed walnut highlighted by crossbanding around the drawers. The top of this credenza is a writing surface of fine, green leather, bordered with a pattern of gold tooling. The leather makes an excellent writing surface, much better than wood, glass, or metal. The hardware on this credenza is elegant solid brass with the drawer pulls being swan neck style. What makes this credenza unique is its breakfront shape, plinth base, and rounded corners and columns. Because this is a partners' desk, both sides have drawers, while the pedestals are reversible so you can have the drawer configuration to your liking. The central drawer is a hidden keyboard drawer, and the face drops down for use. Each of the drawers boasts hand-cut dovetailed joints, which show the level of detail and care that went into this desk's production. Also, every drawer and cabinet has a working lock, and the piece comes with several keys. The pedestals are very sturdy so you'll never have to worry about it becoming shaky or wobbly. The piece breaks down for easy moving/shipping into the top section and 2 pedestals. Overall, the condition of this desk is excellent, as it is brand new. The walnut and green leather go together very well, resulting in a very sophisticated and professional look. This is an excellent piece and is priced to sell quickly, so good luck and happy bidding!
