The desk comprises of two pedestals, each fitted with four large drawers with wide cup drawer handles, and a sliding desk top above. The tambour cover slides back smoothly to reveal a large desk underneath which is fitted with all manner of trays and compartments, including pen drawers, letter racks and smalls drawers, fitted with the most beautiful upturned handles. Arched central drawer and hidden wheel casters underneath the pedestals. Fully panelled all round. Harris Lebus was a furniture manufacturer and wholesaler based in the East End of London in Tabernacle Street with a factory in Tottenham.

There are a few things to note: There are spots of ink to one side of the tambour - not as visible in life.
