Item Details

British Oak 2 Drawer Desk Green Top C1930


The backbone of many a British Government office, this 2 drawer oak desk survives from the 1930s – stamped 1938 underneath and is a decent example of its type. The setup is relatively straightforward, 2 good sized drawers with brass cupped handles, a green top all sitting on 4 purposeful legs. This one would have possibly sat in a clerk’s office in a government building.


The condition is good for its age – the oak has a pleasing grain and colour. We have waxed the drawer runners and also given the frame a light beeswax. The legs are firm and the desk frame is wobble free. The original green top is in situ with no rips nevertheless with marks and historic dings.


A good 1930s British desk ready for work…
