Victorian Travelling Military Campaign Desk
This is a fine quality antique English Victorian mahogany folding campaign-writing table, circa 1890, in good working original condition.
These desks made to be portable so they could easily be taken on campaign and to be carried easily and folded away when not in use. This desk functioned as a means of writing or working table.
This desk comprises a mahogany paneled case, decorated with satinwood fan inlay. The case can be folded out until it locks into place. When the table is sitting horizontally, the metal ball locks are fixed in position to stop the table collapsing inwards.
With the case open, this reveals a full grain brown leather interior. The interior includes a writing surface with paper insert. Either side of the writing surface are a total of 8 small item holders. At the top is a place for a calendar insert as the days of the week are tooled in gilt. There is a built-in ink well, two large item holders, below further storage provision for small items. Underneath is document / paper storage pocket.
To close the writing table, the two ball-locks, located on the underside, must be pushed in. The case can then be folded shut the locking latch will click, securing it. When closed, the writing desk can be easily stored in a confined area. The table is attached to four supporting pretty folding legs, with the innermost legs having two stretchers for additional strength. This item is well constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
