Large Biedermeier Writing Table Early 19th Century Bird's-Eye Maple Veneer

About the Item

An unusually large desk, even suitable for two working spaces at a time. The rounded rectangular top with a tooled black leather writing surface above four frieze drawers, two to each side, on downswept legs with brass caps and casters. The light bird's-eye maple veneer is contrasted by ebonized details. This writing table would work great in the atmosphere of a library and in its clear Biedermeier design goes well with even a modern interior.

  • Rosewood 19th Century Writing Table
    Located in Bedfordshire, GB
    An exceptional quality mid-19th century, William IV Period, rosewood writing table having blind tooled leather inset to crossbanded top, over two drawers with original turned wooden knobs opposed by two false drawers, to extremely elegant shallow frieze, raised on reverse tapered, faceted, end supports with elegant carved scrolling feet and original recessed brass castors. Dating to the William IV period, which of course has a most distinctive style of its own sitting, despite not lasting very long between the late regency and victorian periods of english furniture making, this writing table has a lot of stand out features. Firstly it is a great size. A little bigger than many, indeed big enough to use as a day to day desk for working at, whilst not being overpoweringly large like many earlier georgian writing tables which one may find. It is also of exceptional quality. Clearly constructed in a top workshop it is constructed using high end, decorative rosewood veneers on the outside and a lot of mahogany as secondary timbers on the inside which is a great sign of quality. The entire table oozes class and sophistication in fact from top to bottom. The original turned wooden knobs are a nice feature, as is the high support...
