19th Century Aesthetic movement Satin wood and mahogany desk

19th Century Aesthetic movement Satin wood and mahogany deskThis is a beautifully made 19th century Aesthetic movement desk. The desk is made from mahogany and a form of satin wood that gives the drawer fronts a fabulous sheen. The contrast between the two woods give this desk an unusual style that I adore. The drawers all run smoothly and close flush. The left side is all individual drawers and the right has a double depth drawer at the bottom. Overall condition is good with attractive patina throughout. The

The frame is all bamboo which has been lacquered in black giving it a classic feel suitable for a huge number of interiors

Big difference

It is a wonderful design that sets apart from the rest

This is a striking 20th century

It came from the German embassy in London and is clearly a very well made piece

The subtle colours are hugely decorative and the age of the piece is evident in its originality

The design has been taken as a literal representation of how one would make a lamp from actual bamboo right down to the wrapped twine detail around the legs

Great quality plate with no major faults and a great look

The whole design is stunning and the mix of burnished metal lifts the gorgeous polished marble top

Immaculate condition and hugely decorative
