Product Number: 54
Style: Victorian
Description:

This description is a general description of the item and not necessarily representative of the third-party or ebay listing. We have attempted to find items similar to the items Dian Furniture used to sell.		 This solid mahogany Davenport writing desk is a new reproduction. The first desk of this type was made by the English firm of Gillow for a Captain Davenport in the late 18th century. The sloping writing surface is supported by carved cabriole legs resting on bun feet and lifts to reveal an abundance of hand dovetailed serpentine front drawers. The top lid lifts to reveal open space used to house ink wells and quills for writing and is fitted with a black, tooled leather writing surface. There are two banks of 4 dovetailed drawers on each side of the desk for filing away all your papers. The raised panel front, back and top along with the dovetailed and hand chamfered drawers are a testament to the quality. This davenport writing desk is finished in a rich antique brown stain and the wood used is solid mahogany.
