Mid Century Vintage Teak Gordon Russell Desk No.2
Description
Handsome teak Gordon Russell twin pedestal desk presented in a wonderful condition. This one is a super piece of Mid Century furniture in well-toned teak and it goes without saying, fab build and design quality.Gordon Russell was one of Britain’s great furniture designers and the Gordon Russell Design Museum is worthy of a lengthy visit if you wish to know more about the company and how it shaped furniture post war in Great Britain.
Back to the desk... It’s a weighty piece with a run of 3 drawers to the right and a useful single shelved cupboard to the left which is removable if you desire. The top of solid teak is nicely planed to the edges giving it some real mid-century style, as do those angled legs. As you would expect the desk looks good from all angles so could be placed in a room not just against a wall.
Workshop report – The desk survives in great vintage order with sensible day to day wear – the drawers are running as they should and the original period brass handles are all in situ you could choose to polish up but we prefer the original look... It sits firm with no wobbles, sways or repairs. The teak frame is good in colour with a pleasing grain, the odd mark or two. The top is lightly aged marked but nothing nasty. Overall a well-cared for desk.
A super piece of post war British furniture from one of the best in the business.
