Victorian Burr Walnut Davenport Desk

A fine quality Victorian Davenport desk, crafted from beautifully figured burr walnut with decorative inlay.

Supported on bold baluster turned front columns and standing on bun feet with concealed castors, this elegant and compact writing desk is both highly decorative and practical.
