Library Tables And Desks For Sale on 1stDibs

An assortment of library tables and desks is available at 1stDibs. Frequently made of wood, oak and mahogany, all library tables and desks available were constructed with great care. There are 498 antique and vintage library tables and desks for sale at 1stDibs, while we also have 3 modern editions to choose from as well. Library tables and desks have been made for many years, and versions that date back to the 18th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 21st Century. Victorian, Regency and Georgian library tables and desks are consistently popular styles. Library tables and desks have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Gillows of Lancaster & London, Charles Limbert and Gustav Stickley are consistently popular.

How Much are Library Tables And Desks?

Prices for library tables and desks can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, library tables and desks begin at $250 and can go as high as $212,272, while the average can fetch as much as $4,872.

Finding the Right Desks-writing-tables for You

Vintage desks and writing tables span centuries of design. The writing table came first, a simple surface built for correspondence, while the drawered desk followed as record-keeping at home and in the office grew more demanding.

Styles to Know

Any desk at least 20 years old falls under this broader vintage category. If you want a tapered-leg, mid-century look specifically, browse mid-century modern desks; Louis XVI and Art Deco secretary desks bridge the writing-table and desk forms. A vintage table lamp adds task lighting to either.

How to Choose the Right Vintage Piece

Writing tables often carry little to no storage of their own, so a separate file cabinet or desk organizer may be worth planning for, alongside a close look at the surface dimensions against the space available. Each piece comes from a vetted 1stDibs seller, with era, designer and condition detailed, and every purchase is covered by the 1stDibs Promise.
