Victorian Walnut Davenport c.1870.

A delightful piece of Victorian design for the blog today. This small late 19th.c 'Davenport' writing desk is veneered in a beautiful coloured burr Walnut. The slope lifts to reveal a satinwood lined compartment whilst the brass galleried top section hides a letter rack and ink stand. The bank of four drawers on the right hand side is echoed with dummy drawer fronts on the left. In excellent condition having been restored and repolished in our workshop.
Dimensions: width 20", depth 21", height 33".
£1595.
