Tremendous Vintage Industrial 12 Drawer Desk C1910
A rare piece of vintage industrial furniture from a recent visit up North and surviving in truly wonderful original condition. Very happy to have found this one with its lesser seen drawer configuration and untouched or un-messed with state. This one would easily fit into home or commercial space.
From the early part of the 20th Century from a workshop, it's fortunate that this one was not moved, reconfigurated or readapted like so many have. We have genuine wear to all areas with the original cup handles remaining. As mentioned we have two flights of 5 drawers either side of a set of two longer central drawers. This one could sit in a room as the back is good too…
Workshop report – This one is very original, we have given the drawers a clean, and all are running as they should. Likewise the frame. The original cup handles are all in place and unpolished (they would polish up, but it’s not really how we do things) and any historic woodworm has been treated purely as a precaution. The top does have genuine wear and we have wear to the bases on all sides. It sits firm with no wobbles or sways. Ready to place and enjoy.
Our best desk find this year so far and rather marvellous!
