Description

Presented in exceptional showroom condition, this striking Victorian partners writing table is an excellent example of 19th-century English craftsmanship. Constructed in solid mahogany throughout, the piece combines both practicality and elegance in a refined and unusual design.

Unlike the more common arrangement with drawers along the length of the table, this distinctive model features drawers positioned at either end, allowing easy access from both sides while preserving a balanced and symmetrical form. This configuration makes it ideally suited for shared use, with ample legroom for two individuals seated opposite each other.

The writing surface is adorned with a new, thick, high-quality leather inset, expertly hand-dyed using traditional methods to achieve a rich, aged oxblood red tone. The leather is beautifully finished with an ornate gold-tooled border, enhancing the table’s overall sense of grandeur and sophistication.

Each drawer is crafted from solid mahogany with fine dovetail joints, reflecting the quality expected of Victorian cabinetry. The raised fielded drawer fronts are a mark of distinction, and they retain their original brass swan-neck handles and working locks.

Supporting the table are four robust, turned mahogany legs, showcasing elegant shaping and proportion. The legs are fitted with porcelain castors, ensuring smooth movement while preserving the period character.

This is a truly handsome and versatile piece—functional, decorative, and historically resonant. Whether used as a working desk in a professional study or as a statement piece in a home office or library, it makes a positive and lasting impression in any setting.
