A lovely Victorian green man heavily carved oak desk. We date this desk to the late 19th century.
The desk is supplied in three sections: the two pedestals and the top section.
The pedestals sit on carved plinth bases and each have four castors.
The desk pedestals each have three graduated drawers, the top left hand pedestal drawer is fitted with dividers. The main top section has two outer drawers flanking a larger central drawer over the kneehole area. The table top surface has a newly fitted dark red leather with gilt tooling around the edges.
The desk is profusely carved on the front, back and sides. The carvings consist of the green man masks, fruits and scrolls.
The faces on the drawers are the handles. The drawers are fitted with locks (no key is supplied but a suitable replacement could be obtained if required).
The desk has a height of 30" (77cm), a width of 54.5" (139cm) and a depth of 32" (82cm).
The kneehole height is 23” (59cm), width at widest is 19.5” (49cm) and the width at base is 17” (44cm)
This lovely desk remains in very good solid condition with minor surface markings commensurate with age and usage. There are some usage marks to some of the surfaces and some minor wear around the top surfaces and some edges from past use. There are some indents around the base area.
This remains a very stylish and elegant twin pedestal desk. It will continue to provide sterling service for many years to come.
