About the Item

Double pedestal desk by Herman Miller. This desk was probably a custom order. There are three wide drawers and three small drawers. The top small drawer has a sliding pencil tray. The top drawer on the right side is divided. This is the comb grain oak finish. The top is a white laminate. The desk rests on brushed chrome legs. This desk has a residential feel to it as opposed to the larger executive desks by Herman Miller. The desk is in original condition. There are some small losses and wear on the inside edge of the pedestals from chairs bumping it over the years. The top shows minimal wear. The J pulls are in very good condition. There are a couple of pen marks to the fronts of the drawers. Contact us for cheaper shipping rates for California delivery.
