A fine antique mahogany pedestal desk in the manner of Thomas Chippendale

Price: £4750.00

Description: This meticulously crafted antique mahogany pedestal desk, created in the Chippendale style just prior to World War I, exemplifies intricate 18th-century classical motifs such as Greek key detailing, blind fret moulding, ogee bracket feet, and gadroon moulding, all masterfully integrated by Thomas Chippendale. It features original, high-quality working Chubb locks dated 2 July 1914 and has been carefully restored to highlight its original craftsmanship and functional elegance. This desk would categorise as Chippendale revival, but unlike many produced during the early part of the 20th Century, the cabinet maker sourced mahogany of a superior nature; the wonderful timber used for the desk’s top is testament to this. The desk offers practical dimensions with ample legroom and working width, measuring 76 cm in depth by 153 cm in width by 78 cm high, with a kneehole of 65 cm in height by 61.5 cm in width. A desk designed to be used and admired for generations.
