About the Item

Antiques of London We are delighted to offer for sale this is no ordinary desk and chair; it's a dazzling Oriental Chinoiserie ensemble, a testament to artistry and functional design. The Carlton desk, a hallmark of organised elegance, is the centrepiece, bathed in a rich palette of deep green and shimmering gold. The green forms a luxurious lacquered base, setting the stage for the intricate Chinoiserie detailing. Across its surface, hand-painted or gilded scenes unfold: pagodas nestled amongst misty mountains, exotic birds perched on blossoming branches, and figures in traditional robes. Crucially, this Carlton desk boasts lots of storage. Its distinctive horseshoe shape is packed with a multitude of drawers and compartments, each offering a place for everything, from correspondence to cherished mementoes. The matching armchair completes the set, harmonising perfectly with the desk's aesthetic. Featuring a curved back adorned with gilded foliage, it offers both comfort and visual cohesion. The newly upholstered fabric ensures a fresh and inviting seat, complementing the desk's colour scheme and adding a touch of modern luxury to the timeless Chinoiserie design. It's a statement piece that transforms any room into a haven of sophisticated style, offering not only beauty but also unparalleled functionality. Explore our thoughtfully selected inventory and find the perfect addition to elevate your space. Don’t miss out on this exclusive opportunity to own a piece of luxury.
