A VERY ATTRACTIVE, EARLY 20th CENTURY, CARVED OAK AND BURR WALNUT, FIVE DRAWER, KNEEHOLE DESK / WRITING TABLE, OF EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY AND CONDITION. THIS FABULOUS CARVED OAK DESK IS ENGLISH MADE AND IS A RICH MEDIUM-DARK OAK IN COLOUR. IT DATES FROM THE EARLY 1900'S AND HAS AN EXCELLENT ALL ROUND FINISH THROUGH-OUT. THE DESK ALSO TAKES ON A DELIBERATE 'STRESSED', AGED APPEARANCE, WITH RUSTIC 'STRESS' MARKS THROUGH-OUT. IT IS OF THE VERY BEST QUALITY AND IS MADE IN THE 'GEORGIAN STYLE', USING TRADITIONAL METHODS, SUCH AS VISIBLE, PEGGED, 'HAND CUT' JOINTS ETC AND ONLY THE VERY BEST QUALITY, SOLID OAK TIMBER, VENEERS AND FINISHES ARE USED THROUGH-OUT, INCLUDING ALL THE INTERIOR LININGS. THE DESK HAS A LARGE, SPACIOUS, WORK AREA TOP, WHICH HAS TRADITIONAL 'STRAIGHT CUT' EDGES AND ROUNDED CORNERS. THERE ARE A TOTAL OF FIVE DRAWERS BELOW THE 'OVER-SAILING' TOP, WHICH PROVIDE VERY USEFUL STORAGE SPACE. THERE ARE TWO SMALL FULL-LENGTH DRAWERS ON EITHER SIDE OF THE DESK, WITH AN ADDITIONAL, LARGER DRAWER ABOVE THE KNEEHOLE. THE FIVE DRAWERS HAVE ATTRACTIVE, 'CHOP-CARVED' BEADED BORDERS TO THE FACE AND THEY ALL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL 'RING-TURNED' OAK KNOBS. THE DRAWER FRONTS ALSO HAVE VERY ATTRACTIVE INSET 'BURR-WALNUT' PANELS SET WITHIN THE CARVED OAK BEADED BORDERS. THE DRAWER SIDES, EDGES AND RUNNERS HAVE ALSO BEEN WAXED TO ELIMINATE WEAR, STICKING DRAWERS AND UNNECESSARY DAMAGE. THE WRITING DESK HAS INSET, SOLID OAK, PANELS IN EACH OF THE SIDES AGAIN WITH DECORATIVE MOULDED / CHAMFERED BORDERS AND IT STANDS ON ATTRACTIVE 'RING-TURNED' 'REEDED' AND FOLIAGE CARVED, OAK LEGS, RAISED UPON TRADITIONAL BLOCKED FEET, WITH SHAPED OAK FRIEZE WORK BELOW THE DRAWERS. THERE ARE ADDITIONAL OAK STRETCHERS AT THE BASE OF THE DESK, FOR GREATER STRENGTH AND STABILITY. THE DESK 'FRAME-WORK' AND ALL THE LEGS HAVE VISIBLE 'PEGGED JOINTS' THROUGH-OUT AGAIN FOR ADDITIONAL STRENGTH AND SUPPORT. THIS SUPERIOR QUALITY, CARVED 'STRESSED OAK', KNEEHOLE DESK / WRITING TABLE HAS BEEN CLEANED AND RE-POLISHED.
