Refurbished Mid Century 1950's Oak Double Pedestal Teacher's Desk by Abbess
A handsome refurbished mid century industrial style large oak topped double pedestal desk / teacher's desk by the ever popular Abbess with four drawers; one of which is lockable. This stunning desk is well proportioned and houses the original oak handles, all of which have been carefully stripped of the original brown lacquer and professionally restored with Osmo Polyx Oil to reveal the wonderfully rich colours and patterns of the oak. The Abbess logo can be found on the original lock, as seen in the photograph. This piece would be a fabulous addition to a study, hallway, dining room, landing or indeed any contemporary room. The Abbess logo can be found inside the top right hand drawer on the original drawer lock.
The desk does not disassemble so please measure all door widths and access points (e.g. stairs, turning points) before purchasing.
Condition:
This piece is in very good condition and there is no major damage to note apart from some marks, dents, dings and scratches to the top of the desk and inside the drawers, which are to be expected with a piece of this age and really add to the character. The lock is the original Abbess lock and there is a replacement key, however it does stick sometimes and needs a jiggle to lock and unlock.
Please contact me if you'd like to see additional detail photos or if you have any concerns regarding the condition of this piece please contact me directly.
