American Oak Roll Top Desk Bureau American oak roll top %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
Circa 1900, top quality American oak roll top desk/bureau sold by ‘Stewart & Co, Glasgow’. The solid rectangular top has a moulded edge and a presentation plaque, and beneath this is an ‘S’ shaped slatted shutter with a stylish escutcheon with the retailers name and a double sided lock. When the shutter is open it reveals a well organised interior of almost 30 various sized drawers and pigeon holes and a large writing surface. There are 2 open apertures cut into the sides, which would have been for internal posting when the desk was locked. Below the top is a configuration of one long drawer in the centre and pull out slides over 4 graduating drawers on each side. The handles are carved oak and ribbed in an almost gadroon pattern. When the flap is closed this has a mechanism which locks the drawers. The sides of the desk have fielded panels, and the back is polished making it a freestanding piece. There is a fielded panel section at the back of the kneehole (known as a courtesy board). All standing on an enclosed plinth. Very good example of an American rolltop desk.

Size 129cm high x 136cm wide x 85cm deep.
