Another beautiful piece from my private collection.
This desk sat in our front living room for 20 years.
It was actually Donnas computer desk.
Perfect for bookwork storage with a shelved faux-drawer cupboard to the left and three graduated drawers to the right.
The top having two wide drawers, all with later stylish brass-work.
The top is very well faded and patinated mahogany with unusual cherry-wood cross banding flanked by thick pear-wood stringing.
For many years before we owned this desk, the previous English owners must have left in a sun filled bay window, to be so well faded overall.
Yet another piece I’d have happily kept for my apartment, if I had the space.
Never seen anything like this before.
