Tall desks have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Baker Furniture Company, Arne Vodder and Laylo Studio are consistently popular.

How Much are Tall Desks?

Tall desks can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $3,307, while the lowest priced sells for $60 and the highest can go for as much as $301,617.

Finding the Right Desks And 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.
