Elegant Vintage Painted Ladies Writing Bureau / Writing Desk

Elegant Vintage Painted Ladies Writing Bureau / Writing Desk

Description:

This is a beautiful vintage ladies bureau / writing desk adorned with a beautifully carved apron and standing on carved long cabriole legs. It benefits from a single drawer and internally has the original beautiful red leather writing pad and storage compartments along with a further small drawer. This elegant desk is well proportioned and is in very good order with the original brass handles and lock and key still working. It has been carefully sanded and restored and has been hand painted externally in Farrow & Ball's timeless 'Off Black' Modern Eggshell, and the drawers have been lined in an ebony damask paper. This piece would be a fabulous addition to a study, hallway, dining room, landing or indeed any contemporary room.

Condition:

This piece is in very good condition with no damage to note apart from the minor nicks, dents and previous repairs which are to be expected with vintage and antique pieces and adds to their character. The leather writing pad is original and as such is in a beautifully worn condition. We don't just slap on a coat of chalk paint on our pieces and call them upcycled - each of our pieces undergo a lengthy process of restoration and preparation before being painstakingly stripped, cleaned, restored, woodworm treated if there is any sign of historic woodworm, primed and undercoated before painting a minimum of 3/4 coats to ensure a high quality finish. Our piece aren't distressed or shabby chic - they will naturally distress over time with general wear and tear, like all furniture.
