"This favorite desk is adapted from an antique modern dining table. I often like to do tooled leather coverings on tables, and here we were able to roll the edge of the leather over the apron to form a set of drawers that make more of a desk. The piece is named for a much-loved, longstanding store manager from the early days of Aero, who always worked from the gallery floor at a beautiful vintage desk." -Thomas O'Brien

Crafted in solid oak and luxury leather the Terri desk is a sculptural piece of art. The Melrose leather used on the writing surface has a subtle tooled border. One of the most captivating luxury leathers in the market today, it's vacuum dried finish, smooth grain, and slight sheen magnify the natural beauty of this leather. To reduce exposure to scratches, scuffs or discoloration, use of a blotter is strongly recommended.

At over 125 pieces, this collection designed by Thomas O'Brien for Century Furniture includes many types of furniture, from upholstery to handcrafted wood and metalwork, for every room of the home, and in time, the garden. In style it is hopefully just as ambitious and interesting. There are purely handsome French and Scandinavian modern inspirations, but also the world of historical English forms, and the glamour of the American skyscraper age in between. All these influences are refined and recombined through the ways that I think about vintage and modern living. Some of them are dressy. Some are casual. Everything has an essential American elegance that makes the design lasting. See less
