Large 19th C French Carved Oak Partners Desk

This stunning mid-19th-century French oak partners desk is a masterpiece of design and functionality, featuring a newly tooled black leather writing surface and ample storage, making it both a practical and aesthetic addition to any room.
The desk’s design is a celebration of craftsmanship and thoughtful utility. The top, with its newly tooled and embossed black leather inset, speaks to traditional methods of furniture making, providing a luxurious and durable writing surface. The thumb-moulded edge adds a classic touch, while the desk’s ability to stand freely in a room thanks to its finished all-around design allows for versatile placement. The fielded panelled sides and intricately carved front and rear elevate its visual appeal, making it not just a piece of furniture, but a statement piece.
Functionally, the desk offers practicality with its three drawers on each side and two large carved pedestals, which house cupboards with hidden interior oak-lined drawers. This thoughtful design ensures ample storage space, perfect for organizing papers and office essentials. The pull-out reading slopes, also inset with black tooled leather, add an extra layer of convenience, making it ideal for multitasking. Each of the 12 drawers is fitted with turned oak inset handles, maintaining a cohesive and elegant look. The pedestals rest on a plinth base with turned bun feet, allowing for easier movement while preserving the desk’s stability.
In terms of condition, the desk is in excellent original state, boasting a rich patina on both the oak and leather, which speaks to its quality craftsmanship and the care it has received over the years. The fact that it comes apart into three pieces adds practicality for moving and setting it up in different spaces.
