Davenport mid-Victorian burr walnut and marquetry desk, 19th century, circa 1860

About the Item

The Up&Up is an exquisite creation, meticulously crafted from finely-worked burr walnut. Its removable lid unveils a thoughtfully designed interior, perfect for storing pens and other writing essentials. Beneath, a sloping writing surface is beautifully inlaid with an embossed green leather insert, adding both elegance and practicality. The knee space is adorned with a delicate stylized floral satinwood inlay, framed by a pair of intricately carved brackets. On the right side of the Davenport, a discreet door conceals a set of four drawers, seamlessly blending functionality with timeless design. The desk is supported by four elegantly compressed legs, each fitted with a castor for effortless mobility. A rare and distinguished piece, the Up&Up brings an air of sophistication to any workspace or library.
