About the Item
This petite elmwood desk charms with its unusual blend of east and west styles. Made in Northern China, the desk dates to the late 19th century, a period that saw great cultural exchange in art and design. Perhaps commissioned by a foreigner or expatriate, this petite desk is an example of cultural melding at its finest, with a design that at once feels unique and familiar. We love this little desk as a charming sewing table or a child's work space.
