Antique writing desk with compartments — Netherlands, late 19th century

Antique correspondence writing desk in cherrywood with turned legs and original hardware stamped Jac. van Groenendael – Breda.

Behind its discreet console-table look it hides two storage compartments as well as recesses once intended for pen and inkwell. A rare piece of furniture full of character, originally conceived for writing yet surprisingly suited to the way we live now.

Perfect in an entrance hall for tucking away post, keys and small everyday objects, as a narrow desk in a living room or a bedroom, as a console with storage, or repurposed in a large bathroom or dressing room.

A singular antique piece, as decorative as it is functional.
