This traditional Victorian bureau has been in my family for at least 70 years, belonging to my grandparents who had it a long time before I was born. It originally came from a furniture and department store which had a great reputation for fine, high craftsmanship pieces.
It needs a new home now.
It is polished dark wood, (possibly oak or mahogany).
It is solidly built and therefore quite heavy.
There are three good size drawers and a selection of pigeon holes and little drawers at the top which is accessed by a traditional drop down flap with writing surface.
One of the legs is wobbly, it has been like that as far as I can remember, but this does not affect the bureau and it can be easily stuck or screwed firmly in place if wanted.
The bureau/desk has one or two small knocks and bumps as might be expected from its age and having been used regularly for many years.
Measurements: approximately 31”wide x 16”deep x 41 “high
Fair Chance Policy: I’ll wait before choosing a recipient to give more people a chance to reply.
