NOTE: This item is on backorder until 1/5/25.  We apologize for the inconvenience.

What luxury! Based on the airy expansiveness of traditional library tables, this writing desk created for senior partners brings a rich legacy in the tradition of cabinet-maker Thomas Chippendale. Over five feet of hand-carved mahogany stretches out as an instantly impressive showpiece of 19th century antique replica furniture art.

Beneath the exquisitely detailed gadroon edge detail, sit five imminently useful drawers with brass handles on one side, and decorative non-opening drawer fronts on the other. These are supported by the swooning curves of bellflower-embellished cabriole legs that terminate atop ball and claw feet. Rounded kneehole areas on both sides allow for two people to sit comfortably at this Partner's desk.

Traditionally crafted, this Design Toscano exclusive is hand finished with an age-old staining technique of layering, glazing, and distressing that further beautifies this fine English furniture replica. Hand carved of solid mahogany, our work of furniture art is a family heirloom to be passed down through generations.
