Questions About Old Steel Desk
- What is a steel tanker desk?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A tanker desk, also known as a pedestal desk, is a large, free-standing desk with a work surface atop two pedestals or cabinets. Steel versions of the desk were introduced in the 1940s and often used in institutions, such as schools and government offices. Shop a range of vintage tanker desks on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The best way to refinish an old metal desk is to start by cleaning the desk. Ensure that the surface is free of dust and rust, then prime the desk with one to two coats of primer. And dependent upon its condition, a coat of any metal paint can freshen up an old metal desk. Browse a wide selection of vintage metal desks on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023What an old-fashioned writing desk is called varies by design. Pieces with drop-down fronts are secretary desks (these are typically made of two parts: a chest of drawers on the bottom and a hutch or cupboard with shelves on the top), while ones that rest on two pillars, cabinets or bookcases are pedestal desks. A desk with a small writing surface positioned in front of drawers and cubbies is a bureau à gradin. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of desks.
