Mid 19th century davenport writing desk circa 1840.
Good quality early Victorian davenport of elegant proportions.
Green leather with gold tooling writing surface, completed by a spindle gallery to the top tier. Hinged lid opens to reveal a partially fitted interior of 3 satinwood drawers and 2 dummy drawers which house the pull out pen tray and ink bottle storage which is accessed from the side. Fall pulls forward when being seated at.
Fitted with 4 drawers to the side with beaded edging and ornate brass handles. Fitted with bramah locks, but sadly no key. Raised on 4 fluted Bun feet with concealed brass castors.
Recently re-polished by hand which showcases the palisander timber grain to its best. Later replaced leather surface. Minor surface marks to woodwork and natural fading in LINE with age and use.
Depth when extended: 33"
