This antique Davenport writing desk is absolutely gorgeous! It features beautiful solid burl walnut wood marbling, a leather top writing surface, and numerous drawers and hidden compartments for optimal storage. It’s on casters which makes transporting and redecorating easy! This item is in solid antique condition with wear throughout; including patina, scuffs, scratches, and cracks. The leather and wood writing surface has a split/crack in it from natural age (see photos). It would be a great D.I.Y. to replace or refurbish with a new piece of leather, if desired, but the wear just adds so much charm. The smaller drawer on the side of the desk is difficult to open (the wood expanded over time). Also, that small drawer needs the knob reattached to it (knob will be included with purchase for future repair, if desired). The large long drawer inside the desk (under the lid) is stuck, and missing one of its knob handles. Two pieces of the top trim on the desk are included (see last photo), but will need to be reattached and/or repaired. The rest of this antique is just pure beauty! It would be charming in the corner of an office; with a mirror hung above it in an entryway; or even in a walk-in closet as a make-up vanity!
Again, this item is structurally sound, but several areas show patina, wear, and damage consistent with age.
No key included with desk.
This item is located in Los Angeles, California.
