1940s Vintage Oak Two Drawer Desk by Crusader of London
A great looking two drawer desk by Crusader, St James Square, London presented in good historic order. Crusader made decent desks and this one is an unfussy well-designed piece with a good glow to the oak. Often referred to as a “Techers Desk”, this would have started life in an office rather than home. The desk still possesses its original brass lock escutcheons and the drawers have a nice step on the lower lip.
Condition wise it’s got a few ink stains inside the drawers not noticeable when closed, the top is historically marked but not abused, the usual knocks and bumps from day to day use but otherwise it’s pretty good. We have waxed the drawer runners and given the frame the once over with a little beeswax to enhance its history. Smells fine with the Crusader logo on both sides of the desk and in the drawers.
A good vintage British desk of smaller proportions than some.
Dimensions – Overall: Height 76.5cm x Width 121cm x Depth 81cm
