About the Item
A superb original 19th-century antique British campaign desk, a perfect blend of elegance and functionality favoured by military officers during their expeditions. Crafted from rich hardwood, this desk features a polished surface that showcases the natural beauty of the wood grain, enhanced by its original leather top.
The desk has a classic pedestal design, providing stability and a sophisticated silhouette while maximising storage potential. With nine thoughtfully designed drawers, it offers ample storage for documents, stationery, and personal items, ensuring an organised workspace. The leather top provides a smooth and durable writing surface, elevating both the aesthetic and functionality of the desk.
Accentuated by elegant square cut solid brass handles, this desk combines durability with refined style. Its distinctive design reflects the craftsmanship of the era, featuring dovetail joints and hand-finished details that speak to its authenticity and age.
This desk is exceptionally versatile, thanks to its three-piece design and light construction, allowing for easy movement. Its size and proportions make it an ideal fit for various settings, whether in a living space, hallway, or office.
Condition Report: This desk is in wonderful original condition with some historic repairs that add to its character. It has developed a beautiful patina over time, and the leather top demonstrates authentic wear, complete with ink marks that enhance its authenticity and testify to its use in the field. Despite this wear, the leather remains in good sound order with a couple of very small losses on the edge. Each piece in our collection goes through a thorough workshop inspection to give peace of mind to buyers that every item is solid and ready to use.
This antique British campaign desk serves not only as a functional piece but also as a stunning statement of history and design.
