Description
Continental Reproduction Walnut Veneered Tooled Inlaid Desk (style of Louis XVI)
An exceptionally elegant and opulent Continental reproduction desk, walnut veneered throughout and richly embellished with exquisite inlay and decorative gilded detailing.
The desk is fitted with a tooled leather writing surface to the top, which remains intact and presents very well, showing only a couple of light dimples consistent with gentle use. The surrounding walnut veneer displays excellent colour and grain, framed with fine inlay and decorative banding that enhances the refined appearance.
The frieze incorporates a central long drawer flanked by two smaller drawers, all fitted with decorative metal handles. The drawer fronts and panels are beautifully inlaid, adding depth and visual interest.
Raised on beautifully shaped tapering legs, each leg is further enhanced with ornate gilded decoration and terminates in gold-coloured metal feet. The desk is finished to a high standard on all sides, making it particularly well suited to central placement within a room where the decorative rear can be fully appreciated.
Solid, sturdy, and well constructed, this desk combines elegance with practicality and offers a strong visual presence without overwhelming a space.
Condition: Solid and sturdy; leather top intact with minor dimpling
Top: Tooled leather inset
Drawers: One central drawer with two flanking drawers
Decoration: Gilded detailing and fine inlay throughout
Legs: Shaped tapering legs with gold-coloured metal feet
A truly striking and beautifully detailed desk—elegant, refined, and richly decorative—without doubt one of the most impressive examples of its type we have had in stock.
Dimensions-:
180cm wide
90cm deep
84cm high
Kneehole 64cm wide x 67.5cm high
PB169 186000 221225
The age and condition of our furniture is described to the best of our ability, to enable you to make an informed decision prior to purchase - please read the item description carefully and see all photographs for further information.

Delivery is usually with 1-2 weeks depending on location and day of purchase, as we have select days for courier collections, tracking will be provided and also a delivery date once we confirm the booking with the courier.
Please do mention beforehand if it is upstairs or if there is a lift etc please expect to provide some assistance as some of our items can be very heavy or awkward to manoeuvre.
The courier service is usually a 2 man team, and is booked as ground floor delivery unless stated otherwise (lift/assistance provided etc),
Thank you

Additional Delivery Info from Seller
Delivery for items can range between 1-2 weeks, however we do try to ship them out as quickly as possible once we are able to organise the right courier/postage for you.
Small items - If we are able to we will post smaller items with couriers such as DPD and parcel force.
Medium Items - Depending on the exact dimensions we can check with DPD for example to see if they can accommodate the item however if they cannot they will be shipped via a general courier.
Large items - Large items will be couriered and assistance will be needed on both sides (this keeps the cost down for both buyer & seller)
Postage- all posted items will be fully covered and tracking provided.
Courier payment - courier payment will be upon delivery by you the buyer either cash, Pay pal or bank transfer, This is due to vinteriors fees as if we take the delivery fee directly from you through vinterior we incur a larger fee from the sale of the item and it is not sustainable for us as a business
