Item Details

A handsome and well-proportioned Victorian figured walnut desk, circa 1870.


Featuring an elegant inverted breakfront design and retaining its original character and quality throughout. The rectangular top is inset with a green leather writing surface, finished with a finely tooled edge and framed by a richly figured walnut surround.


The desk offers excellent storage with eleven drawers arranged around the kneehole, all constructed in solid mahogany with hand-cut dovetail joints. The drawers retain turned walnut knobs, and one drawer is stamped C. Hindley & Sons, the respected London cabinet makers and upholsterers who supplied high-quality furniture during the mid to late 19th century. The firm was renowned for producing finely crafted pieces in the Victorian taste and exhibited at major international exhibitions, earning a reputation for quality workmanship and design.


With decorative turned and carved columns at each corner and on brass casters, the desk displays attractive colour and grain throughout and presents beautifully from all sides, making it ideal for use in the centre of a room.
