Petersen Antiques Desks and Writing Tables
Established in 1989 and a 1stdibs dealer since 2005, Petersen Antiques is a beautiful mixture of antique and custom-made furniture, art, and tapestries. This carefully curated collection, located in their Los Angeles workshop, is the result of 25 years of traveling the world in search of the most beautiful pieces and inspirations for custom designs. Their Swedish-American founder, Ken Petersen, began his journey collecting antique pieces from all over Europe, later returning to his roots and sourcing antiques from Sweden as well as creating new Scandinavian-inspired designs. Today, their Los Angeles workshop has a large collection of antique furniture from all around the world and is the home of their made-to-order workshop where they have a specialist team hand-build custom furniture using only the highest quality material and traditional carpentry.

Italian 17th Century Walnut Rustic Trestle Refectory Dining or Library Table
Located in Firenze, IT
This charming 17th Century massive scale rectangular refectory table, dating back to Baroque period, is a magnificent example of Tuscan rustic craftsmanship.
The top consists of four large solid warm brow walnut planks capped on either end with matching pieces of walnut wood slabs.
The 3 meters long and 1 meter wide tabletop rests on a trestle base composed of six massive turned baluster legs joined by a simple molded stretcher running the distance on either side making the seat even more comfortable.
The simple and clean line of the top is wonderfully harmonized by the roundness of the legs, all with exceptional wood grain and texture and rich, warm great original patina throughout.
In typical Tuscan fashion, this farm table is long and narrow, featuring a very rustic but clever construction: two wooden pegs and thick joints on each side allow the top to easily separate from the base for easy transportation.
This is "The Table" solid and sturdy a wonderful and warm piece, rich in history and rare. The four plank cleated detachable top is of superb color and figuring.
This versatile antique refectory table can be used as a hall, dining or serving table.
It has character and is simply stunning from every angle making a fabulous statement in any room both in your countryside home or in the most elegant setting. A number of early solid walnut pieces which we have sold have harmonized very well with modern interiors.
Any kind of dinner service will be enhanced by the sobriety of this table that will stand up to no end of use.
This rustic and lasting table can be free-standing or would be perfect also leaned on the wall as a huge console...
