EVOKE ELEGANCE WITH CLASSIC CHINESE DESKS
The easiest way to banish the boring home office blues? A Chinese desk. Whether it’s a petite writing desk or a grand secretary desk, antique Chinese desks will add intrigue to any room. For a room where you desire a subtle Asian influence but not necessarily a stylistic take-over, consider a Chinese cross-leg desk with rattan-front drawers. A classic campaign silhouette makes this style of desk an easy-to-pair with design that can be taken in both modern and traditional directions. Pair it with an acrylic chair to tee up a modern-meets-eclectic vibe or partner it with a Brighton chair to achieve a more traditional Asian vignette. For those who favor a more traditional Asian aesthetic, consider a Chinese carved desk. Whether you opt for an altar table-style desk with elaborate fretwork on the sides or an Asian secretary desk featuring allover, high-relief carvings, these Chinese desks will set a dramatic mood in any room. Use them amongst modernist, low-profile furnishings in a neutral palette to make a striking statement or add them to a maximalist interior to cue up more-is-more-style splendor. An antique Oriental writing desk covered in elaborate chinoiserie scenes can also be used to evoke elaborate decorative appeal. Partner them with roll arm settees covered in animal print fabrics, plush oriental rugs, and a Louis XVI-inspired chair to achieve a luxe, layered room that radiates global sophistication.
