Antique Hand Carved Gothic Revival Desk with Leather Top and Wrought Iron Hinges

About the Item

Marvelous 'open design' Gothic desk with a great patina. If you are looking for a unique desk to grace your (home) office or any other living space then this handcrafted work of beauty could be yours to own and enjoy soon. The open design, with its vase shaped base, makes it more spacious than most antique desks and with the right accessories on the leather inlaid top you can create an atmosphere that is second to none. The quality carved panels in the doors of this practical desk are shaped like the top sections of large Gothic church windows and the depth and details are an absolute joy to look at. Combined with the hand forged, wrought iron hinges, the cast iron lock plates and the perfectly hand carved sides this medieval style desk is a real eye catcher and statement piece. The deep drawer and both cabinets (with perfect working locks and keys) also make it highly practical. A shelf in the middle of the left cabinet divides it into two sections of equal height and depth. After shooting the photos we noticed we had forgotten to put that shelf in. Apart from a few minor imperfections this antique desk is in superb condition and absolutely ready for you to use and enjoy. If you appreciate the design, workmanship and Gothic beauty then you will love our price. Especially since perfect packing (in a custom made crate) and worldwide shipping from our store to your door in just 4 days are complimentary. Maximum width x height x depth: 59 x 32.3 x 31.5 inches. Maximum height x width below the drawer: 25.4 x 21.6 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.

  • Antique Gothic Desk w. Hand Carved Church Windows, Holy Men, Chimeras & Drawers
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Unique early 1900s, solid nutwood, Gothic Revival writing table. If you are a collector of unique, great looking and practical to use Gothic antiques then this striking desk could be flying your way soon. This antique writing table has the most beautiful top that we have ever seen on a Gothic desk. The top is actually inlaid with a stunning burl nutwood and to make it even more special, the extra 'slides' on the sides (the ones that can make this desk more than 8.5 feet wide) have been inlaid with the exact same burl 'star pattern'. We feel this desk must have always been used with a glass top, because we have also never seen an unrestored desk of this age with a mint desk...

  • Largest Antique & Top Quality Hand Carved Gothic Revival Barometer & Thermometer
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Exceptional and unique, 3 feet tall, Gothic Revival wall barometer, circa 1890. This unique antique from the second half of the 19th century, in our view, is the dream of anyone with a Gothic (inspired) interior. This design could not be more Gothic and to have found a barometer of this size and with this many Gothic details, again, felt like a blessing. And even though we had to pay-up to be able to acquire it, when you find an antique that is this rare and good then you should always try to buy it. This monumental and solid nutwood antique barometer is entirely hand carved and, as you can see in our photos, the workmanship is second to none. This work of Gothic wall art is perfectly symmetrical and we love the fact that only the large church pilars are carved in a different pattern. This rare design feature, to us, shows the creative nature of its designer. We also love the many Gothic church spires on top and the way this entire 'composition' is superbly balanced. There also is small 'ledge' underneath the barometer and thermometer, possibly for displaying some small sculptures. The only downside would be that the inside of the barometer/thermometer is not squeaky clean. Maybe it is easy to open the front of the barometer, but we have no experience with that. Have you also noticed the amazingly detailed Gothic leafs at the top of both the large pilars? They too display the amazing workmanship of a seasoned craftsman. Besides the enormous height and width, what also makes this rare barometer truly impressive is its depth, because this almost gives you the idea of looking at a magnificent barometer through 3D glasses. All these top quality and impressive details together make this Gothic barometer...

  • Restored Gothic Revival Desk Side Bookcases Drawer Writing Slope Pugin Gillows

    Located in GB
    We are delighted to offer for sale this exceptionally rare Gothic Revival circa 1840 solid oak partner desk with top drawer writing slope and side bookcases made by either Gillows of Lancaster or Pugin Where to begin, this desk has been on a journey, when I first received the piece it looked like it had been French polished and waxed around 20 times, it had a very clumpy sticky finish, my restorers have stripped back all that horrible guck, they have then lightly stained and French polished it the correct way which has kept all the period patina and simply made it golden, The leather top and writing slope top has been replaced with fully aniline natural cattle hide leather that was plain, I’ve then had my leather polishers dye it this gorgeous whisky brown colour. Lastly there was various small timber repairs which have been done with antique timber...
