About the Item

We are delighted to offer for sale this stunning very rare original George III circa 1780 walnut twin pedestal double sided partner desk with period handles and green leather surface A very well made late 18th century desk, I have never seen another double sided piece from this era, it is sublime, the front has nine traditional drawers, the back two cupboards, the concept was of course for two people to share the same desk, either in a legal context or for the boss and their assistant. The desk comes complete with all original handles and green leather top which has a lovely patina We have cleaned waxed and polished it from top to bottom, as mentioned the desk leather has normal patina, there are other various signs of used from 240+ plus years of service, everything functions as it should I can have the desk fully restored to include the timber being all washed back and French polished, for a price ask, I have left the desk as it is because allot of collectors are looking for genuine age related patina, others are looking for fully restored As things stand we have deep cleaned hand condition waxed and hand polished it from top to bottom Dimensions Height 78.5cm Width 122.5cm Depth 85cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point This item is available for collection from our Wimbledon warehouses Condition: Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description around condition Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of cracking creasing and wear, we recommend regular waxing to ensure no moisture is lost, also hand dyed leather is not recommended to sit in direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time as it will dry out and fade.
