Walnut Executive Desk
|
| This quality double pedestal
executive desk is the perfect workspace to furnish your little
corner of the world. It came right out of a early office
building and dates from around the 1920s. Double pedestal
executive desks are becoming harder and harder to find and very
sought after. The desk is a hefty 5 feet 6 inches wide and means
business. Construction features solid walnut and walnut veneer
made to last for generations. This finish is a brown walnut
stain with nice graining to the desktop. Normal price on a desk
like this is $3,500.00 and up. Our price is not even close to
this. The desk's drawers bears the maker's mark, Doten Dunton
Desk Company of Cambridge Mass, a name is synonymous with fine
commercial furniture. Only the better makers mark their pieces.
It was distributed by Clark & Gibby Inc, of New York City.
You'll also be glad to know there is ample leg room with this
desk. The rectangular shaped top has molded edges with rounded
corners above a large center drawer and two pedestals. The
central drawer has a secret storage compartment underneath the
tray. The left pedestal has a pull-out writing pad above a small
drawer, over a large book-size drawer, over another drawer. The
right pedestal has another writing pad over 4 drawers. The
drawers are 4 corner dovetailed for smooth operation and
durability. Another excellent feature is the beveled drawer
fronts and line carved corner supports - an invariable sign of
quality. The desk rests on 8 turned legs. Brass knobs open each
drawer - one knob on the right writing pad is a replacement.
There are a few nicks and scratches here and there, and
distressing around the central drawer which adds depth and
character and a timeworn aged look. Altogether the desk is in
very good, sturdy condition and the perfect addition to your
home or office. Specs: approx. 66 in. wide, 36 in. deep, 30.5
in. high.
