Complete Portable Wood Desk Stand with Two Inkwells and Drawer |
Stock number: 9420 |
 Click for a larger version of this picture. | |
£220.00 | |
This attractive portable wood desk stand comes complete with two glass inkwells, an integral front drawer and a firm stylized carry handle. I believe it dates from the early part of the 20thc. The two square glass inkwells fit well into their recesses so appear true to the piece. You will note there is a slight “play” on the hinge, most noticeably on the left hand one but the hinges themselves are secure. It sits well on its four “bun” feet. It is a good size but not too large measuring 300mm by 200mm. The wood is walnut however the wood may have faded over time as you will see that the internal colour of the drawer is much darker. Nonetheless it is in good condition and a very tactile and pleasing item that will be a pleasure to own and use.
