- Lovely Oak and Macassar Art Deco Desk c1930
Lovely Oak and Macassar Art Deco Desk c1930
Particularly attractive Art Deco desk of smaller proportions with accents of Macassar ebony to the handles and base. We would assume a commission made piece which successfully incorporates gentle hints of the Art Deco period into its design and form.
Firstly the size is good - it would easily fit into more compact homes or commercial spaces. The fact that it has a little two shelf bookcase to the side is a real bonus however, it’s the quality and design that won us over. The use of Macassar ebony wood to those gorgeous shaped handles and the stepped base is just marvellous. The oak top sits into the piece and overall it’s been crafted with a keen eye for detail.
Workshop report – the desk sits in good condition. The piece is around 100 years old so expect day to day marks but nothing out of sorts. The original handles are in situ, again, with a little wear. The inside of the drawers do have scribbles and marks but that’s its history. We do have a historic repair to the inside of the long drawer but you only notice it if you pull the drawer out fully – not on display when closed. The lower base does have a few little nibbles to the Macassar but again not nasty and not fresh. Expect genuine aging.
A very nice looking Deco desk C1930.
Dimensions - Overall: Height 74cm x Width 112cm & Top 110cm x Depth 60.5cm & Top 58cm
