Edward J. Wormely for Dunbar executive desk in walnut with deeply sculpted inset rosewood drawer pulls, brass shoes, and removable woven cane privacy screen (ca. 1950s, Indiana, USA). Scarcely seen shorter version of the otherwise comparable 811 model, offering an abundance of storage options despite its relatively small footprint (60" L).
Features two drawers on the left side (a multi-tiered bottom drawer below a shallow drawer and sliding writing surface with brass pull). The right side is composed of a companion sliding writing surface with brass pull and two shallow drawers flanked by a dedicated file drawer. Additionally, there is a lockable pencil drawer in the middle (key present).
The removable privacy/modesty screen is suspended between four brass spacers and shows light patches of cane loss. The walnut has been refinished and light wear remains (a couple of edge gouges, a surface scuff, and one veneer repair to one of the drawers's edges). Overall, very good, vintage condition with wear commensurate with use/age.
Retains the Dunbar metal tag to top left drawer.
H: 29" x L: 60" x D: 32.35"
Open space between drawer banks: H: 25.38" x L: 23.13" x D: 30"
