About the Item

This elegant 19th century double-sided desk is crafted from richly toned elm wood, admired for its warm honey color and naturally swirling grain. Its rectangular top features an inset leather writing surface, highlighted by decorative stitched edges, which add a refined and timeless touch. Designed for both practicality and symmetry, the desk presents functional drawers on one side and faux drawers on the reverse, allowing it to be beautifully displayed in the center of a room. This double-sided construction makes it perfect for a library, study, or executive office, where aesthetics and function are equally important. The desk stands on tapered legs ending in gilt bronze sabots, a discreet yet elegant detail that enhances its classical French character. The combination of sturdy elm construction, finely detailed leather top, and gilt bronze accents reflects the craftsmanship of the 19th century and offers a timeless sophistication. With its refined proportions, warm patina, and versatile double-sided design, this piece seamlessly blends functionality and decorative appeal, making it a superb choice for collectors, designers, or anyone seeking a classic desk with authentic 19th-century charm.
