AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Table / Work Desk for Architecture or Public Administration – Solid wood – First half of the 20th century (c. 1920–1940)
Description
Fascinating and sturdy antique table/desk dating from the first half of the 20th century (roughly the 1920s–1940s), featuring a sober and elegant industrial/administrative style.
Made of solid wood with warm and dark tones, this piece stands out for its clean lines, truncated-pyramid legs, and a wide work surface that is slightly recessed with a shaped edge.
Details and Features:
Front drawers: Equipped with two roomy sliding drawers with dovetail joints, perfect for storing documents or stationery.
Handles and Locks: Both drawers feature the original cup pulls in brass/metal finish of the era and recessed locks with an impressed mark (CAP). Note: keys are not present.
Structure: Extremely robust and stable, ideal as a long dining table, display counter/shopfitting, or as a spacious study desk.
Condition of the Furniture
Overall condition: Good vintage condition, solid and ready to use.
Patina and signs of wear: The top and the frame show a lovely lived-in patina, with light superficial scratches and small signs of wear visible in photos (particularly along the edges of the top), which attest to its authenticity and history without compromising its beauty or functionality.
