Circa 18th Century English Unusual Size Painted Knee Hole Desk or Side Table

About the Item

A charming diminutively sized English kneehole desk. It was not originally made for a child but could be used as such as well as for an adult. Repainted sympathetically in a dark blue/black colour. The desk has useful deep side drawers (three on each side) with one long drawer along the top and one inside the knee hole. All the drawers are fitted with drop handles. A shallow ‘slide’ shelf is fitted above the small cupboard in the knee hole.. Also works well as a side table
